Dennis L. Davenport (1964)
"What's Your Problem Mister or Hell's Bells." Many of us became quite familiar with those phrases, it was a prelude to life, not to expect something for nothing. Unfortunately it wasn't well received by all. Joseph W. Stone and his gruff expressions really got our attention. Although in reality, he was a warm and generous individual, who truly cared for those around him. His untimely passing in April of 1964 (Easter Vacation) was quite a shock. But, it also taught an important lesson, to make the best of our time, we're only a heart beat away from eternity!
God Rest Our Friend Major Stone!
