Garrett had signed my yearbook and wrote a comment. We were in Mrs. Good's homeroom class that year. He wished me the best of everything. A very nice memory to have. Becky

Garrett was not in Vietnam. He was an intelligent  agent for the Air Force . He died in Taipei, Taiwan. He was a great twin, and I miss him very much!   Gail

Thank you Gail and thank God for the good memories....... When all is said and done,,,,,,,, memories fade and the stories change a little with every re-telling. A song, a scripture, a poem, a laugh that sounds a lot like him refreshes the love that goes along with the memory.   David Sealy

Sonny and Richard were great friends. He came to visit us before leaving for Taiwan in 1968. He was so excited to meet our son, Richard Jr. We were living in Laurens at the time. It was so tragic to hear of his death. We missed him so very much. I still have greeting cards he sent from Okinawa and Taiwan.  Cathy Walker Cranford
