I spent so much time at the Wyatt's house on Ohio Street growing up, I felt like a member of the family. I think Mr. Wyatt wondered if he had another son, because I was always at their house eating their food and drinking their "pop". My deepest sympathies to Duane (Jr), Jeff, and Bryan, Mrs. Wyatt and their family.
