David Reyes (Pecos, Texas) by Tumbleweed Smith
I got to visit my grandpa, Professor David Reyes, this past week in Pecos, Texas. He recently got featured in Tumbleweed’s Smith’s statewide radio broadcast on his professorial instruction. He taught Spanish at Odessa College for 25 years and guides students on obtaining their GED. He also helps the undocumented get their papers in order.
He’s such an inspiration.

Dear Mother: I have written to tell you my worrying secret. Now don’t cry when you read it because it is neither yours nor my fault. I suppose I will have to tell it now, without any nonsense. To begin with I was not meant to be an athlete. I was meant to be a composer, and will be I’m sure. I’ll ask you one more thing.—Don’t ask me to try to forget this unpleasant thing and go play football.—Please—Sometimes I’ve been worrying about this so much that it makes me mad (not very).
