He was a very smart person. He told he had a photographic memory and he could read a book one time and retain everything that he read in it. Said when he was in school his teachers tried to encourage him to go to college after finishing high school but he had no interest in it. Teachers told him that was such a waist of talent. Said that he was happy just being a farmer. Farmed cattle and cotton. He could have become anything he wanted to. I think he was already what he wanted to be, a farmer. Nothing wrong with that at all and couldn't have been anything more noble either. No it's been around twenty years ago when I last read any of his post.
