#Personal Note from the Author, Judith Webb Mays: Helen Ray was my second cousin, more like my first since she was just slightly older than me. Her mother, Jewel Webb Sisson was my first cousin. I loved them both so much. In later life Helen Ray and I were separated by only miles but I will never forget her sweet voice and kind manor. We saw each other a lot when we were young. My daddy, my mother, my little brother, Don, and I would go visit Uncle Tom and Aunt Velma in Columbus and we always had such a good time. Henry would show us his huge Pecan trees and we were in awe by them. Uncle Tom would take us to the Propst Park only a short walk from their home. Those were good times! I will miss you but you will be in my heart as long as I live. Love you, Judy
