Uncle Troy, age 96 was laid to rest today beside his parents, John William Hoch and Lucy Jaeger Hoch. He and Aunt Mildred would have been married 75 years next month. They were married May 13,1939 in Yoakum. The last time Billy and I visited them in October at the Farm in Big Lake, he sat in his chair and she beside him in her wheelchair. They held hands and told us about the day they married. That afternoon when they left on their honeymoon, the car broke down right at dark.They spent their first married night in the car. The next morning when it was light enough to see, Uncle Troy fixed the car and they were on their way.
