I enjoyed getting to know Gorman, he was a tram driver and so much more here for us at the Dallas Arboretum. Such a kind, generous man. I loved hearing his stories so much. We will miss him dearly. He touched so many lives here. All the staff and volunteers send their love to the family. Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden
Kevin, Joanie, and Danny, I was saddened to hear today, two months afterward, that your Dad, my second cousin, had passed away. After I had heard from my Aunt Dorothy Clark a few years ago that she had received a letter from your Dad telling her that your Mother had passed away, I decided to contact your Dad so I could start visiting him regularly. We had some great visits together, went out to eat, and just talked. He told me stories of growing up in Bessmay, of driving a tank in the war, and he even told me that my Mother was the most beautiful bride he had ever seen, except for his own wife, of course. When I told my Mother that, she was very pleased. He told me stories about my grandfather, Aaron Ennis, who I never knew and of whom my Dad never spoke, since he was the driver in the accident that killed his Dad in 1955. So, I really cherished those stories. My Dad, Roy Ennis, his first cousin, also talked to him on the phone after I gave him the number. I gave him the news this afternoon. According to my grandmother, your Great Aunt Margie, my Dad and yours, my Uncle A.C. Ennis Jr. and your Dad, who grew up together in Bessmay, were like brothers. My Uncle A.C. passed away in 1975, your grandmother in 1985 (my "Little Auntie"), my grandmother (your "Little Auntie") in 2000, at whose funeral Danny graciously attended, my Aunt Yvonne Ennis Davis in 2009, my Aunt Dorothy Ennis Clark in 2014, your Mother, and now your Dad, my second cousin, Gorman, all of whom I will miss everyday, but will have wonderful memories of all of them, including your Mother and Dad. I know how proud your Dad was of all of you and how much he loved you all, because I would see his face beam when he spoke of you. I am so grateful that I had those visits with him while I still could. I hope you all receive this note, because I remember the summers in Dallas with all of you during my younger days. Your Cousin, Terry Ennis May 31, 2017
