Funeral today

Post by armydriver »

I am a little nervous about the funeral today. I am leaving in the old CCKW at daylight to allow enough time. I have to travel the back road to Fort Sam Houston, as the folks on IH 35 seem to want to go faster than old Betty Boop will go. :lol:
Will post the story tonight when it is over. This is the first time I have done a funeral.
