My family incurred another loss last week. My mother's first cousin, Enman, was killed in a car accident in Augusta. I am not even sure what to say about him. I enjoyed talking to him at the reunions. He and his wife, Lorena, came to Jesse's first birthday party and he always talked to John about the Guard.
Enman knew several of the mechanics in Edgefield and liked to keep up with John through them. The two of them often talked, about what I'm not sure, but you would see them together at the reunions both smiling and nodding. I'm sure it was Guard talk. :)
I found out today Enman had been out mowing lawns. He mowed the lawn of his church and for friends. He did manage to call his wife just after the accident, but all she heard was heavy breathing. She called his phone back and someone else answered and told her there had been a "bad accident". He was pronounced dead at the scene.
I just cannot believe he is gone. He was loved so and will be missed.
