This memory is rather distant but thought I would share it with Roland's family.  My parents, Mary Ruth Layton-Wright and Kale Wright took my brother Kermit James and myself on trips almost every summer.  We went to Seattle to see my Mother's Brother John, and his family on a couple of different occasions.  The one thing that sticks out in my mind was when Roland, his older brother Vance, my brother Kermit James and I went outside to shoot hoops.  It is a small memory but one that I look back on with happiness.  Unfortunately we lost contact over the years.   For whatever reason, we were not aware of Aunt Loretta's and Vance's death and were never able to send our condolences.  That is a great shame.  So sorry that whatever caused it, caused us to loose track of an important part of our family.  I was able to find on line and I called Roland back in 2015 to invite him to a Cousin's Reunion that I was trying to organize.  He had other plans and so we lost another opportunity to "get acquainted".  I know he had a great interest in cars, he would have had a lot to share with many of the other cousins and so I really regret not ever getting to know Roland as an adult, I am sure that he was a very fine person.  I know his parents were and I am sure that those qualities were instilled in their children.  I have shared this site with other cousins.  Do not know if any of them will respond.

Layton Family,

I just learned of Ron's passing from the new home owner. Our whole family sends condolences and love. You all were such good neighbors for so many years. The neighborhood will not be the same without you. Having you there was so important. Thank you for your many kindnesses.

Love the Elvrums
