On our way to Tyler on Saturday, we drove through Rusk and took a mental walk down "memory lane". David's grandparents built this wonderful home in 1936, and then his parents moved into the home following their retirement. In November 2008, David and Mary made a difficult decision to sell, and to move Mary to Bryan to live with us. Our memories include Christmases with extended family, summers exploring the creek, seeking and finding old treasures in the attic, and backyard cookouts and picnics. We reflectively reminisce fond recollections of David's dad, Frank, also known as Pappy, to my 3 children. Sometimes I feel sadness about letting go of this home filled with such heartwarming memories.
