What can I say…?
Mrs. Knabb was like a 2nd Mom to me for soooo many years. Alan and Wayne were like true brothers. This brings such warm heartfelt memories and good times. Mrs. Knabb was the kindest…warmest…gentle soul.
A part of her will always be with me throughout my remaining days.

Joann: Still love you. And Wayne and Alan and Jeremy (Lissa, too) and Zach and Jack. And the rest of y’all who touched. Oh yeah, and Earl. Had he not taken a shine to me, I would have never known you. Y’all are close to me as Blood. You are the emotionally strongest person I’ve known. Peggy agrees. The tragedies you endured…and kept on going. Always bringing more souls into your circle. I believe my blood-Mama is in heaven. You’re in that same boat. A real doer of “love thy neighbor” ’cause that’s what Jesus wants. Loving, kind, honest, warm. And when you’d get a snootful, I’d hear the reliable grunt, “UH!” Damn, I miss you.
