Angela and I met in 2023 when we both joined a Mardi Gras dance team. It seems longer than that. We instantly connected and clicked on all levels. She's been such a great friend and I have gotten to know her family so well and they have pulled me in as a newly inducted family member.

Courtney and I got back to 2008 when both our sons were in the same class at an elementary school in Conroe, TX. We instantly connected and remained friends throughout our relationships up and downs and the distance when I moved back to Louisiana in 2014 as she is located in Texas.

Eric is a very kind-hearted, down to earth person. He Wayne's first born and it pleases him to the core of his heart to see him grow into the man, husband and father of two he has become. He embraces his family and put them first before anything including himself. He, his wife and children have embraced me with open arms and respect me as a loving family member without judgements.

Byron is Wayne's baby brother. And although they are years apart, Wayne can count on him when needed and turns to him when it comes to things he needs to confide in. Although he jokes with Byron from time to time, he knows Byron will be responsible to get things done that he would ask of him. Byron is Wayne's brotherly/close friend aka Pistol.

Short and fiesty and well known to people everywhere. She is 84 years old and think she's still young and can outdo me. We are two of a kind all the time but she's Mother and that's it... period.

Most beautiful, kind-hearted, loving, caring and adored lady I've ever met. She loves me and is true with who she is and how she feels. 86 and still have a sharp memory no matter what you ask her. She gets around and never stays home.

Still my idol who i adore and love dearly. He is a realistic person and what you see is what you get. He is well remembered by many-many people from all over for his athletic and great coaching abilities in the past. He and I are the only remaining siblings of our father's 8 children.
