For the second year in a row, we attended the annual conference of Creative Planning in Overland Park, Kansas on September 9, 2023. And for the second year in a row, before the annual conference, we visited and stayed 3 days with Doris Cunningham and her high school sweetheart Karl at his house in Falls Grove Missouri. Then on the way backing returning our rental car, we visited with Luis Milam and his wife Tanya who live in Bolivar, Missouri, or about 30 miles north of fair Grove, MO. Luis or Loie as his first name, is a third cousin which means he and I share the same great grandfather. I have added two videos that I took of Louis in his garage following the pictures below (double click to enlarge image):

Luis is a guitar player who plays at churches and weddings on the weekend. He gave me the 4 disk set. He has a great voice.
