Good Times with Great People

This past weekend we went to Lake Charles. While we were there, we got to spend some time at my grandparent's house with a very special person. That person is my Uncle Louis. Want to know why he's so special? Well, let me tell you... He was the man that raised my grandfather. He's originally from New York, but through many transitions in his life, he ended up in good ole Basile, LA. He coached at Basile high school for quite some time. He left such a wonderful impact on the people he met. So much that on September 10, they are naming the football field after him, Hanson field.

He is 89 years young. He is so sprightly that he rode the train from his hometown in Texas all the way to Lake Charles to visit. He has the sweetest, most gentle spirit I have ever seen. He is a wonderful, Godly man and I am so blessed that we (me and Eli) got to hang out with him.


"Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever." Daniel 12:3
