He also worked with his father and brothers building houses. He built our house.Dad was a hard worker. In 1926, he was injured working on a church, which injury subsequently led to his death. He was a good father and was very devoted to mother and his children. He was a member of Calvary Baptist Church. He never owned a car but rode his bicycle to and from work. He was not destined to raise his family. When he died, he left six children ranging from age 18 years to 18 months. He was one of the first to be buried in Washington Park Cemetery in October 1928. |
