Bill Gwatney Tribute

I have known Bill and family since the 1960s. We were neighbors in Jacksonville. Several times I had to keep Rusty from pounding on Bill. He was about 5 years younger than me and Rusty was two years older than me. I played American legion for Gwatney and Harold wrote me a recommendation letter so I could get into college. I will remember him, more than his adult years, but the ones that we used to hang out when we were young--a long time ago.
We all go our separate ways, but a shared childhood bond is still just too good to have a killer break.
My deepest sympathy to the family from a close friend from a long time ago. Even though I do not live in Jacksonville any more, the pain is deep and will last a long time.
