Aunt Rinthey will be sorely missed by her husband's family in Tennessee. Rinthey and Walter (we called him uncle Junie) came down to visit my mother (Junie's sister) every six months or so. When they did, all of mom's six children would go over to mom's house to visit with Rinthey and Junie. I remember her as always being cheerful. I know she loved my uncle and took very good care of him. She was always interested in how everybody was doing, and she was always a good listener. My mother, Wilma Troutman, wanted to go to Kentucky for the service, but it snowed seven inches here on that day and we were afraid to travel over Jellico Mountain. We hope to bring mother up to visit Junie and his son Jim and Jim's family some time this Spring. Rinthey was a very sweet lady and we will miss her very much.
