He was my uncle, Mother's only brother. He was known to us as Uncle Dub. I didn't know him as i was growing up, but of course knew of him. I personally met him & corresponded with him a few years ago. He shared stories & pictures with me & we exchanged Christmas Cards. Im sad to say i didnt see him this last year. I will treasure my memories of him & knowing he loved me.
