He is the only Confederate veteran I have found in the metro-east in an unmarked grave.

His family was buried all around him but his grave was unmarked.

I was surprised. A Confederate war vet still around in 1940?

Anybody from top to bottom can win it. Roxana beat Metro-East Lutheran and Metro-East Lutheran beat Madison and we beat Metro-East.

But I was awake, sitting by the window looking down at the trailer and Mr. Zoltan's truck. I could not sleep. That is how it is with folks my age. We take naps during the day, and then we cannot sleep at night. I think that it is because God is getting us ready for the grave. Is that right? Did He ever tell you? ("The Little Stranger")

It was his idea to come to the fair ... and he found his grave there. I don't know which morgue he's in. I would like to see him and take him as quickly as possible.
