I will truly miss Mr. Overstreet. He was the guy to go to everyday for coffee and a encouraging word. He just knew what to say. He was a mentor and had lots of good things to say, about his past experiences in the military. He gave me hope with my 4 kids, and gave advice to my 17 year old daughter about the Navy. He was a friend, and I wish for his family to know what a great dad and grandfather they had. Wendy Lathem, 7th grade Texas History
