    It only seems like a short time ago when Johnny, and J.W. Thomas were putting up with the Stanglins, Larry and Karl. We all were working on the Plyer home just over the wood bridge and passed the 7-11. Lamberth road wasn’t much and 82 was not yet finished. Johnny could and would hold the safety back on an air gun to see how far the nail will go. Hard work but very satisfying to be on the job, Thomas construction. Johnny had his feet in the air then while on the roof. Larry and I could barely keep up. Later Johnny went and got his feet higher in the air. Army Paratroops training sent him higher than he had ever been while framing homes. Years later put a small fire out in that same home. Never forgot the time spent working with Johnny, my cousin Larry and J.W. Thomas.
