Sport Hargett lived at the end of the road that my grandmother lived on. I remember our family picking corn there to put in our freezer. I also remember hunting squirrels and rabbits, along with my dad and brothers, on my grandmother‘s and Sport Hargett‘s land. At the time we lived in the city and it was a big deal to us kids to get to spend time out in the country. -DRB And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying.
