I hope your Mom and all of you are well.<br />Best wishes, SamThe Personal Navigatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363674873060694438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192311707758696365.post-57511268788611918412011-06-02T07:45:00.288-07:002011-06-02T07:45:00.288-07:00I am Jane--Jim's middle daughter--probably the...I am Jane--Jim's middle daughter--probably the most like him--or a combo of him and his sister, Jo--think of that combo--hahaha!!

My Dad had many stories "on"...Dear Sam,<br /> My Dad had many stories "on" you! We could sit under the beach cabins at Crystal Beach or around the campfires at New Willard listening to his stories about you. You were his intelligent, adventurous friend who left Port Arthur to travel the world. Y'all were friends from very early on. You were the one with red hair (right?) He was learning colors and he said that he kept thinking that your hair was Orange and why was everyone saying it was Red?! When I went off to A&M in 1979, he loved to tell the story about how you had Stalin's poster in your UT dorm room in the 50's. At Aggie Muster in 2007 at the Capitol in Austin, my sister and I were on the floor for Roll Call. As we answered for him, we also heard a "Here" from the balcony. We did not know who it was; but, it was an unexpected and wonderful experience. My mom said that it was probably your brother. So, I called him a few weeks later and it was him. We had a nice conversation about Dad, you and Port Arthur things. Anyway, we really miss him and reading your blog was very touching! Thank you for keeping his spirit alive in your writings. He was so special to us and such a great Dad!! He has 16 grandkids and it is fun to pick out the traits that they have of him. Well, I have to get to my four; but, I just wanted to say thank you for your stories. I would love to hear more!!plionbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03991762455180925387noreply@blogger.com
