OUR NAMES: Rj and Lila.
OUR KIDS: Jessica and Marcus, and our granddaughter Kylee Grace, Jessica's daughter.
WHERE WE LIVE:
Arkadelphia,
Arkansas , Located about 73 miles Northeast of Texarkana, Arkansas on I-30.
PETS: We have 3 dogs, a Collie named Dixie, a Weiner Dog (lol..Daschund) named Rocket, and Marcus Dog, Duke, a dark red Golden Retriever. Our other 3 dogs, 13 year old Lady, passed away September 11th, 1997, our 11 year old Male Golden Retriever Kodi, passed away Feburay 11, 2002, and our Female Golden Retriever Destiny passed away in October 2003. They will be in our hearts forever.
We also love to feed the yard squirrels corn on a cob, on a daily basis, as well as the birds and hummingbirds.
GENEALOGY: Lila has been working for years to gather information on Rj's mothers side of the family (God Rest her soul, Marilyn Sue Nance, June 9th 2002), the Hodges Family. Lila's maiden name is Alexander, and she has a lot of information on her family. You can see that information from Lila's Family Tree page at http://www.coatscolony.com/lmcoats.html. There is no information gathered on the Coats surname other than Rjs immediate family at this time, which is included in the Hodges link.
We will also miss Rj's Grandfather, rest his soul September 2003, and younger brother Doug, December 2003.
HOBBIES: Rj and Marcus like to fish and hunt. No, Wait.. Rj LIKES to fish, Marcus LOVES to Fish. Every day is ok with him.
Rj watches LOTS of various sports on TV, mostly Football (pro and SEC college) and the whole family is into NASCAR. Rj runs a free pro football pool out of Yahoo Pickem, where a trophy for the winner is involved. You can see the winners (since 2002) here: http://www.coatscolony.com/pigskinparadise.html
Lila likes garage and yard sale shopping (for antiques mostly), auctions (her Dad is an Auctioneer in Kilgor Texas), genealogy, and reading.
We also love the outdoors and try to camp as often as possible in our pop up camper.
Rj is a BIG Weather Buff. He missed his calling. He is a Computer Technician, but feels like he should have been in the computer area of the National Weather Service. The link of his weather page is below.
