UNCLE FRANK'S OLDEST SON, JAMES F. HUFFSTUTTER
As a small boy, my cousin Jimmy and his wife were among my favorite relatives. They were always so full of laughter and life; Jimmy was always a friend I could talk with and a man who treated a boy with the kind of sincerity that boys remember. All of Uncle Frank's sons are now deceased. I was never notified of their passing. Sometimes we are the last to know that we weren't considered part of the family. Life is full of sad surprises. Jimmy was a veteran of World War Two; he was wounded by the enemy in Germany and awarded the Purple Heart. He was Uncle Frank and Aunt Rubys' oldest son. His brother, Robert Lavern Huffstutter was also a World War Two veteran of the Pacific Theater and also participated in the Occupation of Japan until he returned to the USA.
