We grew up together in Jackson . He was one year younger. Played all sports together.Good athlete . Always a fun person to be around. So sorry for your loss. May you find God’s peace
Lanny and I were classmates in Junior High and at JHS Class of 62 and played basketball and especially baseball together as kids. My dad would drive us to many a game or track meet where he excelled. One of my finest memories was being able to throw him out trying to steal 2nd base when we were 15 yrs. old.
Lanny was a friend and we really enjoyed our youth in Jackson.
Go Vols !!
RIP my USAF brother ✝️

Lanny and I were pro-rook players. I had many good days with "Lonzo". He was always lots of fun. We loved playing rook as a team. RIP my friend.
