Nathan and Icy had ‘half-a-dozen kids and loved every one of them.

Left to Right:  Debbie (child), Clynese, Johnny, Sara, Icy, Geneva, Jimmy and Teen

The oldest was a beautiful red head, who caused guys to drive up on a sidewalk looking at her (still has it, too!).  Her name is Clynese. The next was Johnny.   He was like their daddy and could do ‘anything.’  (Still can!)  He and the next-in-line daughter, Sara, went to a lot of movies together.  Johnny always had Sara pedal the bike!   He could get her to do anything.  (Still can!)  Sara is equally as talented.

The next was a daughter who was ‘the life of the party’ wherever she went.  Nothing has changed.  And actually, ‘she IS’ the party!  Everyone loves to be around Geneva.  Sara and Geneva worked together at a store called Robinson’s in downtown Memphis.

And then there were the youngest two.   They must have watched the older ones and learned how to avoid trouble;  because both were very good kids.   They were always together (and still are).  Teen (the baby), having lost her wonderful husband, Dick, of 35 years, lives with Jimmy, who never married.  And big brother Jimmy takes care of  his baby sister ‘as he always has.’ 

What a family.   There was never sibling rivalry which is the result of having great parents and letting love ‘rule.’   Everyone should be ‘so blessed.’
