BIRTHDAY MEMORIES

Today, Duane would have been eighty seven years old. How we miss him since he has been gone. Eleven years ago today he left us to wait for us in Heaven. The first picture was taken in 1944, when he went to the U. S. Army. The second picture was taken in 1972. The last one taken just one week before he died. We were attending a NARFE meeting and the speaker was Waggoner Car. He was talking about Jesse James and finding the correct grave for him. This is Jesse's hat Duane is wearing in the picture. I think every man there that day had his picture taken in the hat. You are much loved Duane Elmore Tallant.

Good morning Donnie, how are things in Heaven? We all miss you so much since you have been gone. Donnie was born 23 April 1933 to live on this earth, born with Spina Bifida, he was not expected to live very long. With tender loving care, spunk that few have, he lived until 28 April 1994. The doctors once said, it was tender loving care that allowed him to stay this long. He also was a strong, determined person that lived life as he found it. You were very much loved Donnie Ray Posey.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKITA
