My first cousin, Wendell Lowell Wyatt, affectionately known as Bubba to all of us, all his life, passed away at 1:30 a.m. on March 3, 2011. His funeral was Saturday, March 5th in Crowley, Louisiana. He was buried in Maxie Cemetery along with my grandparents from both sides, his mother, his brother, his baby, and numerous other relatives. There is so much family history out there in Maxie, I could never tell it all. I would like to say that Bubba has always been a precious friend, as well as cousin. It was hard not to love him. The funeral was loaded with so many flowers they were even up and down the halls at the church, there were just too many to fit in the sanctuary with the casket. The church was full. Everyone had wonderful memories and many tears at the very sad "homegoing party." I know we will all miss him terribly. I doubt seriously if he would come back from where he has gone. He is healthy, happy and in the company of the best of the best. I'll love him always.
