The Derouen Family, Long Time Scurry County Residents

This young man does not seem to be pleased with his situation...

Mrs. Derouen's family

Not sure this talk is well received...

The original Murphy's

Mrs. Derouen, beautiful, strong woman

After 26 plus years of living in Scurry County, and being married to an original Scurry County resident, I haven't missed very many folks.  However, the Derouen Family, by the little I learned about them have made it their business to mind their business.  Mrs. Derouen, as she was described to me, is a very nice lady.  And she is obviously raised her kids to take care of their own business as well.  All of the children that I took pictures of were so well behaved and sweet!  I was impressed with this family's cohesive attitudes.  They truly seem to care and take care of one another.  They had their own rhythm and sense of humor, they entertained themselves and one another with respect and love.
Thank you Mrs. Derouen for inviting me into your family time.  And for allowing my tardiness!
