LEON CLEVELAND TATE
"KY"
At the time of this writing, my Uncle 'KY', was a healthy, happy 95 year old man. He lived alone, and kept a garden, and raised a calf or two. Today, in the wee hours of the morning, he passed away. He was driving his truck,into town, and a semi-truck ran a red light and hit him. This was on August 10,1999. He survived a whole month, from enjuries to every part of his body. He passed his 96th birthday, in the hospital. I loved that man, so very much. He was such a kind, soft spoken person, whom I believe, never did or said a harmful thing to any living soul. He is survived by thirteen children. But he is 'going home now', and his mother, father, brother, sisters and beloved wife, will be there to greet him. God bless you Uncle KY,you will be severely missed.
