The following was submitted in 2007. 

I am the proud father of a wonderful & beautiful 13-year-old daughter. Jamie Shannon is the pride & joy of my life. She is extremely smart (got it from her mother) and an accomplished singer. She enjoys acting; dancing, ice-skating and anything she thinks will help her to become a “STAR”. I've been married to my 1st wife Glenda going on 18 years now. We attend Wells Church in Jackson. It's a place that has brought purpose & meaning to my life in many ways. One of the highlights of my year is a mission trip to Tlalamac, Mexico. It’s a little village (very rural) 2 hours southeast of Mexico City. My job is very critical… usually blowing up balloons for the kids.  I now have 4 Mexican daughters.

My great passion is riding my Royal Star Tour Classic motorcycle every chance I get. I don't have any tattoos yet...well none I can show you, but I am strongly considering a 3" loop nose ring. There is a high price for the best natural rush I’ve ever found….. 2 broken legs and a 3rd accident where I hit a deer. That one cost me a broken wrist, finger and foot.       That’ll wake you up!!

After F.H., I decided to pursue great academic challenges by enrolling at the University of Raymond. It could be said the amount of knowledge I acquired while there was... "Immeasurable". After careful review & wise counsel with my father, we decided my contributions to society were not being maximized at college. Not to disappoint dear ole dad, having him think his only son a complete failure, I decided to go to work for him at his own company (Dixie Advertising Specialties) & help him get back some of his money. I became a Promotional Marketing Consultant (kind of a glorified pencil salesman). This is now my 30th year & 13 years ago I bought the company. I am now what is referred to as a "Promotional Guru". 2007 marks our company’s 40th anniversary. We’re celebrating by changing our name to LogoStoreUSA. We work with all types of organizations on the local and national level. Several years ago we were selected by Habitat for Humanity International to provide promotional gifts, awards and wearables for their programs and 1700 affiliates nationwide.The hard work has finally paid off. Fortunately I have now made enough money to last me the rest of my life.  Uhhh…I will however need to die by noon next Thursday. Check us out at www.LogoStoreUSA.com 

Amongst the victories there have been many struggles. We all have them. That's Life. It's the Power & Grace of God that took the mess I had made of my life & turned it around to bless me in ways I never dreamed possible. My goal is to somehow be a blessing to others. I’m really looking forward to our 30th Year Reunion on August 18th. I always enjoy getting together to see everyone. I’m getting to that place where I really want to connect with my friends from the past. Drop me a line and let me know what’s happening with you.  Email Ferg or call 601.201.7745. I encourage you to put some info and photos on this website/wiki. It’s not that hard, but if you like we can post it for you. Just send us some info.
