 Cleveland, MS. Own small farm near Booneville, MS | I’m still a few years away from 70 but about 22 years ago I suddenly became the “patriarch” of my family. All my life I had my father and older brother (13 years older) to turn to for advice. Within a three year period both were suddenly gone. It is a sobering thought to suddenly realize that you are the “old guy” that younger family members look to for advice, example, and family history. How did I wind up in this position??? |
