Edith and Jimmy took me and 18 month old Erich Palko in when Steve went in the military. Ha, remember we slept in Patti Sue's room. Love Ya All, the Graham Gang.

Cuz, what memories of Edith and Jimmy. I moved to Houston because Steve was transferred, and stayed in your BR. Ha, you would come home from college and there I was with 18 mo old Erich Palko. They took us in when we had nowhere to go . Love Ya all. Mary and the Graham Gang

I was so fortunate to have grown up spending an enormous amount of time in the Elkins' home. Mr. and Mrs. Elkins both made me feel like a loved and treasured part of their family (even when Cundying and I were somewhere south of perfect teenagers). They were such a blessing to my life. Cyndy and Patti, I love you, and your families are in my thoughts and prayers. Sharee

Jimmy was an amazing person and a great man. He was a huge influence in my life and I loved him deeply. I was blessed to have had the time I had with him and the time his grand-kids had to learn from him.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
