Happy 104th birthday in heaven Uncle Junice

I remember back when I was in the sixth grade. I needed an encyclopedia set. Every Thursday, Mother would send me over to Mrs. Stapleton's house to call off a store order for Junice and Hula's store. I would ask to borrow about two volumes of their encyclopedia sets. 

They will always bring the groceries and the books. When they come I will always have the books I borrowed from them last time and give them back and take the ones I asked for the day. 

They will also take mother to church and bring her back.

One day as I was taking the books back, Dad said, "What's going on here?"

I said , "I am borrowing some encyclopedias off of them to do my lessons." This went on for two years. Dad said, "Gert, we are going to have to get that child there an encyclopedia set." 

Before school started back, I was in the eighth grade, I got the set. Michelle and Jeffery got to use the set also.

Juanita Hawkins was with us, I assume she took the picture.
