During our ‘5th year’ at Texas A&M College, four members of the Range & Forestry Club were close pals. For instance, we all went to Aggie football games together, many out of town, and other school events. Herschel, Danny Ryan, Roger Burleson and me. I’m now I’m the only one remaining,
Thank you for the kind words, and sharing your memories of my father. May the Lord bless, and keep you, my friend.
