Papa had bright blue eyes, a hell raiser as a young man, but sweet and gentle to all of his Grandchildren. In the late 1950s he made a trip to Vowells Mill, La. to place new headstones on the graves of his Mother Delia, and his 2 siblings, Mellie Annie and William Osker in Harmony Cemetery, Natchitoches Parish, La. Papa served his country in W.W.1, and his youngest son, Homer Clyde would travel almost the same path in W.W.11
