HONEY BUN BIRTHDAY

HAPPY 94th BIRTHDAY 
to My DADDY

AUGUST 8, 1921 - MAY 23, 2000

I have few words to say -
There are really none necessary.
My Daddy knows my heart words - 
That's all that matters.

Oh, such love.

Orange County, North Carolina  A descendant of the Plantation of Ulster, Martha was born in Antrim County, Ireland around 1731.
