Civil War

BALDWYN – Dalton Eugene “Gene” Prentice, 85, died Friday, Oct. 28, 2011, at his residence. He was born May 28, 1926 to Lawrence and Bertha Holmes Prentice. He was a retired barber, and Justice Court Judge. He was a member of the First Baptist Church of Baldwyn, he was a 32nd Degree Mason, and an Army Veteran of WW II.

Gene was a friend to all that came in contact with him. My parents lived in the house with Gene and Ruby when they first married. Gene was a Barber in my grandaddy's Barber shop and a friendship was established between our families that lasted a lifetime. An easy laugh and a joking manner was  his way.  Thanks Gene for your friendship.

There will be other postings, but I sure could use some help with anything some of you might have from the 60's that you might want to share with classmates. you can email to me or post them on FaceBook and I can get there. Hope you enjoy. I have a limited number of email addresses so if you know anyone that might like to join in please let me know or have them email me at tomlamp@gmail.com.
