My blood runs deep through the hills of Southeastern Missouri and around the swollen bends of the Mississippi river. We are proud of our heritage, whose roots extend across the flat lands of the Midwest. Beneath the plump belly and peppered hair of my father resides a man who was brought up on a farm.
