Poppa Jr. rest in peace. Thanks for being the best uncle/poppa a young man can have. Even though we were not able to see each other as often as we wanted, the memories and love are strong. Two of my special memories were when I was able to spend the day with you stocking Durkee spices on your city of Torrance grocery route, and when you picked me up from Jr. High after I was sting by a bee, then we went for Ice cream. Both times it was just you and I spending some great quality time. See you in Heaven. God Bless You. Love and prayers to the rest of my Arkansas Cover Clan! Your nephew Dusty
