‘Ol’ man with rock’

By Willis Webb

 

On several occasions, including a few Father’s Day columns, I’ve written of my late father and those particularly special moments in his alltoo- short 57 years. This year, I’m going to memorialize another great father, my late father-in-law, Joel Clifford Bollinger, known all his life as Jay or J.C. The reason he was known by the initial is somewhat amusing. Jay was an identical twin. His brother was Horace Paschal Bollinger, thus was known as H or H.P. As the youngest two of seven children, five of them boys, it was perhaps easier for their parents and siblings to alphabetize them.
