Wilmar, AR Thursday, October 31, 2019 Man this is a hard pill to swallow. You were one of my favorite classmates. Lol we stayed in ISS. Not because we were bad kids. We just couldn’t seem to make it to class on time. And after so many tardies we were stuck with Mr. Bates. Give Chris P. a big hug for me you guys were one of a kind.😌😌 I can say you may be gone but you’ll never be forgotten. Fly high classmate and watch over us. 😇😇Temple Baptist Church
