My 15 minutes of fame
Ok - have I got a story to add to this one. Gov Jimmie Davis was a close family friend. My grandfather, Archie M. Smith, was a CPA and at one time in his career was Supervisor of Public Funds for the state of Louisiana with an office in the State Capitol in Baton Rouge.
When I was between 2-3 years old, I used to sing "You Are My Sunshine" in my toddler fashion. My grandfather thought I was "so cute" that he took me to the governor's mansion to visit his friend and to let me sing "You are my Sunshine". No memories of this for me, no pictures, but a true story per my grandfather and my mother.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane and a nice smile.
