Oswell Wilmer Little III

A loving husband, father and Papaw who enjoyed spending time with the kids and grandkids. He loved to cook and prepare the family meal, red beans and rice, gumbo, and chili were his specialties. A true patriot, he loved his country. He loved working at ExxonMobil and enjoyed his work family. He loved to travel the country, and a few places outside. He loved to watch old westerns, especially John Wayne's movies. And Margaritaville and his Friday ugly shirts.
