[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3959505, member: 7900"] I also take pride in being called an Okie, and proudly claim myself to be the same. Largely, I take pride because I knew and grew up in a town with "Okies" of both sides. It took great courage to load up one's family and head elsewhere to better their lives with no promise of employment when they got there. It also took great courage for those that stayed behind because there was no guarantees that they could make a living at home. Those men and women that went and those that stayed all deserve my respect. And, all of the ones that I knew all took pride in the name, "Okie." [/QUOTE]
