Teresa ( Wilt) -Cripe- Gloyd left a message on July 17, 2024:
I met. RUSSELL, JR & his brothers. thru his father when I was a teenager. My father, Robert. Wilt used to go to car auctions together & hang around together. When my father died, Mr. Wilkins Sr did my car repairs. Where I went to high school, & I had my drivers license, when I left that parking lot, exiting up the hill, there was a big hole between ground & cement sidewalk & my muffler would hit, Mr Wilkins Sr had to put rivots on my muffler to keep it attached to my car. Condolences to all of the family from my mother & myself. Wilt. Was my maiden name.
