He too was excited and expressed that you could call him at ANY time. When I have more time to organize the family connections to share with you, I will.

In the last 5-10 years, I understand that the son and his wife were involved in drug use. The son sold most of Novella and Winford's property. If I remember correctly his wife was incarcerated, but it seems that I remember that she was released. If you don't remember the son's name, one of my sisters knows his name. The only way I can get his number or any information would be to visit them. They live maybe 3 miles away. As soon as I am able to get over, I will. Please post your address or phone number and I will get this to them. I will also get the same information from Novella & Winford's son. Deb your glasses look just like mine. You know we are distant cousins as well. Hope you are having a good summer. My break is about to come to an end. I teach 5th grade in the local school district and school begins for teachers Aug. 19. Talk to you soon

Ms. Novella Clark was a Bullard before she married a Clark. At this minute Ms. Novella's husband's name has escaped my mind. Ms. Novella and my mother were both Bullard's. My father and Ms. Novella's husband were cousins on my father's mother's side. This has brought memories back of watching Ms. Novella in church on Sunday's when I was a teenager. When I remember her husband I will provide this info as well.
