My favorite memory is when he taught me to drive his Chevy truck with the shifter on the steering column. Daddy had already taught me in his Chevy truck with the shifter on the floor in the pasture off foreman rd. James taught me to maneuvers for the streets. Little did I know he was teaching me so that I could drive his car to the car wash to get it clean for his dates. Being a teenager I loved it. Many wonderful memories that is one of the best.
