I've known "LULU" for over 50 years. He and some of my other colorfully named friends~~~Kenny "BOOGER" Ashwill,Ricky "STRAWBERRY" Davis, and others~~~ used to hang out in our teems at all the local Haunts in Ft Smith: Dairy Grand, The "Y", Sandy's, Beverly's." I was so proud of his Athletic prowess at College, in the Pros, and as a Power Lifting Champ. I was also proud of his business success, but MOST proud of his building a wonderful marital relationship and raising and nurturing a great family. My thoughts are with all his family and his many friends during this time of ineffable loss.
