    Notes 
    • He had big ears, hence the name Bunny. He loved to play the banjo. And there is a sad story to that. He died from pneumonia as a result of having Scarlet Fever as a child, when my mother was 2 months old, I believe. She and her mother moved around alot after that. Her Grandmother Sophia saved his banjo for her and let her play with it when she was growing up. Her mother Laura Jean died when she was 13 so she was then raised by Sophia. It was the only thing she had of her father's, but it was stolen after her grandmother passed away.
