Thursday, August 17, 2017 – Happy Birthday, Honeyboy


Thursday, August 17, 2017 – Happy Birthday, Honeyboy

On this day in history, in 1907, Randall Edwin Duffey was born to Charles Edwin and Mary Rose Duckworth Duffey  in Colfax, Louisiana. He would grow into a fine man,

and marry a fine young lady named Exa Doy Faust.

Trust me. They grew up to be beautiful.

Together they would have two daughters. One would raise four beautiful children and the other one would go to school forever to learn how to do stuff like writing blogs and adding pictures and YouTube videos.

The older daughter gave him the name Honeyboy when she stood up in the Catholic School at age five and announced she did not have a father, but only a Honeyboy. After the home visit from both Mother Superior and the Monsignor that evening, it was learned that indeed she had a father and she called him Honeyboy because her Mother called him Honey.

Thus he became Honeyboy to every person who met him and loved him for his 93 earthly years. Today he is 110 and having a Nanny Cake and gone hunting or fishing with Uncle Dale. Or he might just be waiting and watching his Houston Astros. This could be the year, HB!

Happy Birthday, Honeyboy. We love you and miss you.
