My longest friend


 My longest friend


Today Roscoe and I drove over to Williston to get some seed cane from Jack Whitehurst, who came to our parsonage the day in June of 1967 when we rolled in from Kentucky, with his brother Bill and sister Harriet, to welcome us and give us some watermelons. That makes them the Williston friends I’ve known the longest. Jack, Bill and I were in the class of 1973, my sister Paula and Harriet the class of 1970. I am really stoked that he is making syrup and in the generous Whitehurst way, is offering his cane to the Trenton FFA and others to help perpetuate the art of syrup making. It was also nice to see his wife Charlene, also in our ‘73 class. 2022
