Our family had to pack their bags and move to AZ due to my asthma around Nov. 1962.  Sorry folks.  Somewhere around 1964 we went back to Abilene for vacation.  Since we both enjoyed fishing at Ft. Phantom Lake (by the Dam) dad borrowed mama's Pontiac Lemans and we made the loop around the lake.  We took the main road that goes to the Bait & Boat docking/unloading area.  Returning, we always took the route on the other side of the lake back to Abilene.  On this day, we were on a straight-a-way road for a good mile and dad punched it.  I'm standing on the floor of the backseat and see we hit 100 mph.  Nice.  I told mom referring to our road trip and she like to have killed dad. That's a memory! :)


If I remember correctly, dad said he wanted his ashes dumped in Ballinger, TX.  My mom wanted to be buried along side her parents in Abilene, TX.  To date, their ashes are with me. 6-21-22.

Weldon was my great, funny, loving and forgiving Father.  I love and miss you dearly dad...as mom did.  I promised you I would take of mom (Janette Lett) and I did for 24 years after your passing in 1994.  Unfortunately, mom passed Jan. 30, 2018, due to COPD/lung issues.  Mom missed you everyday for those 24 years.  As did all of us. I do have your ashes and moms here with me.  WE MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH!!!!  Your generation was SPECIAL.  Your lives were SPECIAL to ALL on this planet.  You brought nothing but LOVE & LAUGHTER.  You just don't see that these days with all of the Trump lies and TOTALLY IGNORANT supporters.
