“Always find time for the things that make you feel happy to be alive.” ~ Unknown
Mom and I often joke that we don’t have our own identities. She is Shorty’s wife and I’m Shorty’s girl. At the reception last Friday, Kentucky’s Associate Chief Medical Examiner Greg Davis asked to meet dad. Due to his line of work, Greg travels around the state a great deal. For years he has told me that every time he’s in Morgan County he inevitably asks someone, “Do you know Shorty Terry?” And the answer is always, “Yes.” He really wanted to meet the man, the myth, the legend. They met, and Greg told dad the story I just told you. As you can tell, dad was tickled by it. Even Gurney looks amused. Greg and Gurney had a chance to meet, too. Three of my all-time favorite men together in one place at the same time. I am so doggone lucky sometimes I don’t know how to act.
