We were all born in Oklahoma. We moved to Texas in 1957 and all still live here. We have 15 children among us who also live in Texas except for one who lives in Washington State. We have many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

We have always been a very close family, but got even closer when mother and daddy died. They both died so young and we miss them every day. We lost our dear sweet Jean to cancer in January of 1997. In October 2007, our baby sister Phyllis died of complications from a liver transplant.

We have some family living in Oklahoma and enjoy visting with them as often as possible.
