As a boy, Uncle Art and my Dad took me hunting the elusive Raccoon in the nearby Arkansas woods. In starlight and with flashlights, we trailed the baying of Uncle Art’s beloved hounds in the crisp night air.

While listening to one of Uncle Art’s stories, the far off hounds changed pitch. We went silent. Uncle Art listened momentarily to the dogs. Next, in full voice, he called to the hounds “Get off that deer and get back to work.” The woods went silent.

It was almost like you could hear the dogs thinking “Uh Oh.” Then they were off again. More stories, then again the change in pitch. This time we were doing the running. Soon we came to a big pine tree surrounded by howling hounds. High up near the tree crest we were able to spot a pair of beady eyes, no several pairs of beady eyes. You guessed it, this time the dogs had found a white faced Possum and babies, but to their credit no deer were in sight. Uncle Art said he was glad because he didn’t want to climb way up that tree anyway.

The Raccoons were safe that night. But as we all know, if there is a Raccoon eating Ginseng in Heaven’s Woods, both are in big trouble with Uncle Art and his brother Junior able to round up his departed Hounds.

Blessings to Aunt Lacine and Jim

Although I haven't seen Uncle Art or Aunt Lacine in many years now, he was one of the most unique men I've ever known. Stories of his hunting and fishing exploits are legendary in my extended family, and it still makes laugh right now to remember him telling me about fishing at night on the river. His kindnesses to a young nephew from California will never be forgotten. The world is a poorer place without you, Uncle Art.
