Since we were married we both wanted children. In 1952 Virginia's doctor discovered this was impossible, so we decided we would try for adoption. We applied at the Volunteers of America in New Orleans. After several lengthy interviews which took about a year we recdeived a call that a beautiful little 4 month old boy with brown eyes and brown hair was available in Shreveport. We were very excited and hurried to see this wonderful little child who had come our way. We fell in love with him at first sight and named him David Lynn. What a joy he has been for us! The Lord had answered our prayers.
We moved to Nashville, and after several years we decided that David needed a little sister, so we applied for another child. After about a year Patricia came along and she fulfilled all our dreams for children.
David and Patricia have been the most wonderful things to ever happen to us. We have always been very proud of both of them.
