Notes: Lou Hinderliter is Danny's wife and was Doc & Dorthy's daughter-in-law. Doc, my Daddy, loved Lou's cinnamon rolls and each and every time Lou had some about ready to come out of the oven, there'd come a knock on the door, with Mother and Daddy waiting on the steps. As Lou opened the door, Daddy would grin and ask, "Are the cinnamon rolls 'bout ready?" Lou was at a loss as to how Daddy also knew she was baking! After several times, she finally got up the courage to enquire. Daddy was very surprised, and exclaimed, "Why Cody (who was then around 5) always calls and say, "Mamma's making cinnamon rolls. Better come on out." Didn't you tell him to call?" Mystery solved!
