Jr....What a great guy. The only guy I know that was shaving in elementary school. I worked with him for years at Alcoa and he was the same easy going smiling person every time you saw him. He wouldn't cheat you out of a penny or lie to you. In my eyes Jr. was one of the greats that come out of our class. His I.Q. was probably the highest in the class but he was just a good ole down home guy. He would do anything for you and not expect anything in return.
