Necie was always ready to take pictures and go to concerts, and she never met a stranger. Even though I was a few years older, we'd still go on our adventures. It was usually most of us cousins together.  I remember even in the middle of North Little Rock outside a concert; she just went right up to this car asking for directions as if there were no danger at all, and we were all afraid to do anything like that because we didn't want shot or kidnapped. She got directions for us, and nothing bad happened though. Another time she struck up a conversation with a homeless man at a gas station in Nashville while everybody was just walking by ignoring the man. Once, her and Dusty came to the house and had us come look because Goober fell asleep naked when he was living in the school bus behind the pond in the field. He was sound asleep and we took a picture of him, cracking up laughing the whole time. If she was having a good time, you'd definitely recognize it by her smile and laugh. She was always wanting to model for me in pictures which helped me out a lot because I learned a lot about photography that way. She was very photogenic and I never had to tell her how to pose because she had all of her own poses ready.

We all kind of drifted apart in recent years just going our own ways in life, but the thing I like about our family is that we always just seem to pick up where we left off. I know we'll all pick back up where we left off when we meet again someday too.
