Yes, that is ...I missed this post for some reason. Yes, that is an amazing story. I was a senior in High school about the time you were getting to know Gloria, Jim and Brian. I soon left to join the navy and remember nice visits with Gloria when I was home on leave. I do remember however one time that Jim let me sit in his aluminum body Mercedes. He warned me not to lean on the fender as it was so soft it might dent. Funny how that sticks in my head.<BR/>Those articles and photos are really interesting.<BR/>He is a humble person. Those are the true heros.David Bryan Gilmorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08954058198438593014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1212890428051515494.post-10519719689578358712008-08-02T14:23:00.000-05:002008-08-02T14:23:00.000-05:00Wouldn't you love to spend and evening with him......Wouldn't you love to spend and evening with him...just chatting about life in general?<BR/><BR/>I can't think of any better neighbors we had along the way.Kevin Gilmorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07689287179985777963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1212890428051515494.post-384478918538664662008-08-02T06:43:00.000-05:002008-08-02T06:43:00.000-05:00Kevin, I know exactly what you mean about speaking...Kevin, I know exactly what you mean about speaking with Jim. The last time I talked to him he had so many interesting things to say it was like he had been a dear friend for many years. Jim and Gloria were two outstanding people in every respect.It was so sad we lost Gloria so soon. You are right when you say we learned a lot about black people from the Barbours. We learned that they are wonderful people, who enriched our lives in so many ways. I am grateful for the opportuity to have known them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
