We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Uncle Bib. As a kid I always enjoyed Bib's sense of humor and his fun loving nature. Its hard to believe that it has been 17 years since my last conversation with him at Mano's funeral. We talked about golf, life, and having kids since I was a relatively new parent of a 2 year old and a new born. I have told my wife the story of the conversation outside the church many times and about how much I enjoyed my only adult conversation with Uncle Bib. I wish there would have been many more.
Hopefully some of our paths will cross again sometime soon. My sister Susie's family and my family both live in Las Vegas. If any of you make your way here for work or pleasure give us a call or drop us an email to let us know when you will be in town.

Dear Mingo Family
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Uncle Bib. I always remembered him as a kind and funny man with lots of energy (or as the Mingo's would say Piss & Vinegar). My dad, Lee (Sweet),told us many stories about growing up with Bib, Tiny, Mano, and Peachy. What a crew that Mingo Family was! I will be unable to attend the funeral due to prior commitments, but I want all of you to know that you are in our prayers. Take care and God Bless.
Love,
Your cousin Mike
