I remember all the good times we had at all of our "Batson" picnics, as well as growing up in Wharton. Mel and Mary Batson were my parents. Lois, Roberta and I got together often. I remember riding my bike all the way to Berkshire Valley to Aunt Toot's and Uncle Ray's home then back to Wharton. I dearly remember Donald because he was our best man when I married my husband Pete back in 1958. I will never forget all my aunts and uncles on the Batson side of the family. God Bless.
