In this episode our host honors two of his family members who passed away in recent times.
Aunt Margie Wallace - My Aunt was a substitute teacher in Darlington County for two decades after finishing a 30 year career at the sewing plant there. She was known to all the students there as "Grandma" and they turned out to her funeral in mass. She was a delightful, thoughtful lady and it is an honor for our show to remember her with this broadcast.
Uncle Kenneth Huggins - My Uncle worked at the Sonoco Products Company for decades, was an avid Atlanta Braves baseball fan, and active duck hunter. He was a camper and outdoorsman. He was also a lot of fun. Some of my happiest memories of childhood are visits to his house when I was small. We tell a few of those stories in this episode which features the eulogy we gave at his funeral.
This episode also captures three women who were near and dear to our hearts throughout our lifetime, My Grand mother Hattie King, my mother Gloria Bulmer (who will be heavily featured in our coming series on the Great American Authors) and my Aunt Willie Mae Huggins who passed away nearly 26 years ago but who was married to my Uncle Kenneth and who was also the life of any party she attended.
This is an episode about my family, one I was very lucky to have been born a part of and we hope you will enjoy the memories we share with you in this episode.
