     Note: He retired as a Coal Miner -worked at "Black Diamond" Coal Mines. He was a farmer most of his life.

He could tell a story about his childhood (or any other subject) and make it come to life. Every time he related his memories it was exactly the same, no variations at all.

He was a kind, generous, gentle man everyone seemed to like. He would take time to spend with my friends even as he showed attention to me.

When I was a young boy Grandpa Tabb would whittle swords out of wood, make me whips out of hickory bark, make me great whistles out of certain vines, and sharpen limbs from trees to make me great apple launchers. I remember that you had to keep the whips in a tub of water so they wouldn't get stiff

Approximately two years before his death at 79, he and I walked between 8-12 miles to see the dedication of a memorial for Merle Travis (A local song writer and performer) who wrote "16 Tons" sung by Tennessee Ernie Ford. I was in very good shape at that time and he walked me "into the ground."
