robert, thanks for answering. my oldest brother was named robert.he was killed in a car truck accident on the way home from work .he was fourteen years old.this was in the mid to late forties.i don,t think dad ever fully recovered from this tragic event. dad was driving the truck when it was hit . the car driver was from north wilkesboro, and was intoxicated. sorry, but i had to get that out. i loved robert ,and he often crosses my thoughts to this day. now, a little more background on dad.he had brothers ed,dan,and dewey. his sisters were mag,irene,and i think velma. mag married john pope,irene married ira bristol and i don,t recall velma,s husband.dan, lost his wife and daugter in a house fire in the fifties.uncle dan was burned over eighty percent of his body,with the majority being second and third degree burns.it was horrible the pain he suffered due to someone mixing gas with kerosene in the fuuel truck.maybe thib will give you some insight into my clan. thanks for responding.jim
