Dad, Lloyd W Hawver, is the twin of Floyd Hawver who is living in Kansas City at the time of this writing, 1998.
I have many fond memories of my dad and of the affectionate way he cared for me and me sister, Judy, and how much he loved mom.
One story: Aunt Rosemary Hawver, wife of dad's twin brother, Floyd, tells me how I am responsible for their meeting and marriage and how dad, when he would come to the hospital to see me and mom shortly after my birth, would stand at the window to the nursary and look at me with great pride and affection. Rosemary, a nurse in the OB section, and in care of the newborn infants, noticed dad proudly looking at me so on occasion she would switch me with a baby thought to be less comely than I. When dad would question her about how that baby seemed to be changing in looks, she would reply that babies change every day so its not unusual for him to look differently. Apparantly she was able to get away with this several times and had a great time laughing about her ability to fool him.
The reason I was responsible for Rosemary and Floyd's eventual marriange is that my dad, Lloyd, didn't drive while his twin brother, Floyd, did so Floyd would drive dad to the hospital to see mom and me. In the course of the visits Rosemary and Floyd were introduced and married in 1938. At this writing, they will have been married sixty years this spring (1998).
When I was born, dad was a paint salesman for Cook Paint and Varnish Company at Jones Store, 12th and Main, KCMO.
Dad loved baseball and had played a lot of amateur ball around KC when he was young. He continued that love as an adult, often went to Royals game until he was in the worst stages of Alzeheimers.
Lloyd Hawver is buried in Mount Calvary Cemetery, 38th and State, Kansas City, Kansas, with his wife, Leona Girten Hawver, in Section 8, Lot 3, Sp 7.[Girten, Charles, 1819.FTW]
