Cookout on the river

Today we are on the road heading to TX but the thought on my mind at this time is my family in Kentucky. I have aunts, uncles and cousins all living there but yesterday we lost one. Gene Earl passed away. 

Gene was about 10 years older than me and since I was raised in Mi and him in Ky I really didn't see that much of him. My older brothers spent more time with him, they were closer to the same age. The first though after I heard was remembering the last trip to Ky. We decided to go at the last minute and was welcomed with open arms. All put together a cookout on the river at their house. Everyone showed up, Gene on a motorcycle and cane. We had the best visit and on the way home I commented how nice it was and how glad  I was we went. When I think of him I will always remember the cookout on the river.

Gene you will be missed.
