I am so proud of my youngest grandson, Mitt IV. He has been Pole-Vaulting for several years and has won many trophies for his Pole-Vaulting. Has participated in national competitions and this past week he won second place in the State of Georgia AAA Pole-Vaulting competition. His personal record was broken that day. With 3 more years in high school, we are hoping he will break many more records.

This is Mitt's twin sister Sophie on the left with her friend Cameron.

As today comes to a closure, I am very sad. A very dear friend I have known all my life passed away this morning. Jackie Dean was a very gentle person who loved everyone. His life had a lot of sad moments, but he was one of those people who would say "That's the way it is". As a child he was faced with polio. His arm was crippled, but that did not stop him from doing the things he wanted to do. He was part of the gang. His heart was broken many times, but he continually to fall in love. Still looked like the Jackie Dean as we all knew him in high school.

We will miss you, but I know where your spirit lives at this time. LOVE YOU, JACKIE DEAN.
