    Notes:

    From Gracey Flynn, 2014:

    There is not much I can say about this cousin, I was quite young when he would come see his father. As a teenager he lost an eye in a BB accident and had a glass eye. I remember looking for Easter eggs and reaching up to get one off the window sill and screaming because it was his eye in my hand instead. He was quite comfortable with taking his eye out and putting it in the glass you were drinking out of. He was a very tall man; I remember him sitting in my mother's 68 camaro and having to push the seat all the way back and still having to tip his head almost to his waist to fit in the car.
