Frank & Rayner,
Great hearing from ya'll. I don't think life would ever had been the same without Frank in my life. The motorcycle wrecks, fishing hooks, rolling "toilet paper" at the wrong houses, learning all houses that look empty are not, learning never to buy 25 rolls of toilet paper at Favas Grocery at one time, learning how to "Unroll" unempty houses and have cookies and milk with the little old lady we didn't know was in the unempty house, falling off the second story roof of his house, hitting parked caddys with VW's and knocking them 75 yards into falcons totaling everything what fun, going 90 miles an hour in your shared mustang with Jo & Dexter wondering if we got killed would the girls weep and miss us, Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Barbaran, Alamat late night fun, Downtowner & Armory dances, pep rallys, class of "69" homecoming parades, we drink whiskey we drink wine we're the class of "69", Greenway Park hut dances, slow dancing to "I'm Mr Lonely" at Burnley's house, hiding in the bushes under MPA's window listening to all their comments about Ya'll none about me, loosing turtle in car wreck when hitting motorcycle Tommy you're lucky that happened she was my almost first car date, touch football at "Cunningham's", HEL.. Hall England & Long hampster farm, You & Bobby's fight in my front yard, me getting knocked over 3 cars by Paul Abraham, your fight at the monkey store with that Sherman guy, those wonderful honey buns for breakfast at your house, getting picked up by Roy Long with beer, Mosow's wonderful party's, after midnight rides, spiking punch at the "Brownie Ball's", watching "House" roll his dads VW 7 times and get out and ask us, Do ya'll think my daddy will notice the dents, crazy names like Rooster, Catfish, Possum, Mole, Gator, Baboon, and even "RAT", "The Rat Pack",holding hands with our girl friends from the football stadium to your house at least you and Bobby I was solo never could keep up with ya'll with girls, I was always K.... Clown remember you called me that, sneaking out of my house to meet the you know who girls, Ibsen's pool party's, pool at Clainy's if lucky enough to get invited, Doe's graduation party's, convertibles(try to name everyone that had one)shocking, calling prank calls to Brownie houses, filling the bathtub up with water to sober up Doug forgetting to turn the water off flooding everything and caving the ceiling on the mans head downstairs, getting evicted the following morning, driving around Strazi's for years until it was our turn to have the inside, Bayou Road adventures, Rosemary's Baby at the Drive Inn, The Graduate oh Mrs Robinson was so "Hot",The Sandbar watching you know who ski "Topless" used to be exciting, School Boy Punch, PBR & Quarts at lunch from Seaton's, Catfish Point with RJB, Levee adventures, stealing hidden other peoples stolen beer, your wonderful Dad & Mother sittin by the fire place telling us not to stay out too late, in the front door at 11:00PM out the window at 12:00 Midnight, Moyse party's, Meriwether party's, "The Thep's, what a band, Indianola party's, Memphis trips,remember the old 14, how bout beating Highway Patrol road blocks in your mustang by going down cotton rows and ending up in Memphis 16 years old with several cases of beer iced down in Long's lap. So many things I can't mention, Hell I've got to stop somewhere. The memories of our Greenville Mississippi days and growing up will always be embedded in my life as some of the fondest and most cherished memories of my entire life. As we all went our separate ways I recall a sadness and remember the actual day I left Greenville knowing I could never return. I remember my last meeting with you in Memphis and the extreme focus you had in becoming a Doctor, I couldn't even get you to drink a beer with me, damn. I never could figure out how you could hang out with a bunch of guys like us and turn out so great. I know now "Frank" you are just an exceptional "GREAT GUY". I Love You Frank and Thanks For Being In My Life!
Danny
