James, Jim, "Gabby" Carr was friend of the French Family back in the Flat Rock days. He lived near Raymond and Lois French and they ran the Flat Rock Grocery store on 69 Hiway 8 miles North of Wagoner, OK. It was a gathering place for the families that lived in the area and the Carr Family was one of those families. When Gabby was about 15-16 years old, he came to live with the Frenches at the store. He stayed till he went into the service and that was where he got his nick name of Gabby. Jim loved talking and Raymond gave him the nickname. Gabby remained a friend of the family until my husband John french got ill a few years ago. We still tried to keep in touch, we are sorry we were not as able to do it the past 4 years. But we have very fond memories of Gabby over the years. He was quit a smart man and loved to learn all he could about everything and everybody. We loved sitting and talking about the Good Ole days at Flat Rock Grocery. We know he is Happy getting to reunite with his son and wife and all his friends and family that has gone on before him. We will always think of Gabby Carr with a smile and think of his good stories. Rest In Peace Gabby. You earned your peaceful place.
