Stafford Willie Abbott was born November 11, 1937, at Uvalde, Texas, he was 8 years 8 months and 9 days old. He was the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Abbott. Stafford passed to the third grade in May. He was always very popular with his classmates and was outstanding in that he had such a sunny disposition.

At his birthday party he gave away as many presents as he received.

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of our little son, Stafford Willie Abbott, who passed away seven years ago June 20:
God walked into his garden
Seven years ago today.
He sought a perfect flower,
So he took one so dear away.
The Pearly Gates were opened,
A gentle voice said "Come".
And with farewell unspoken
He gently entered home.
Sadly missed by:
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Abbott Jr.
Family, Jackie, Carole, Donald and Blanche
Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Carlson
Mrs. Wiley Knapp
Mr. Jack Abbott Sr.
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Bivens and Billy
