Biography* Charles Hull wrote this additonal commentary on March 31, 2006:
     "Aunt Peb's son was Bert, Jr. Presumably her first husband was named Albert, and they named their son after his father, hence, Bert, Jr.
     After she was divorced from Bert, Sr., she married Jack Robinson, who was a Maintenance Foreman for TWA. They lived for a time in Chicago, where he worked at Midway Airport in the early 1940's, then later they lived on Houston Lake (address was Parkville, MO) and he worked at the Kansas City Airport, supervising mechanics who maintained the big jumbo jets. Both of them loved to fish, hence, they lived on the lake so they could enjoy their avocation several times a week.
     "Peb and Jack were my all time favorite aunt and uncle. They treated me like I was their own son, and my favorite Christmas of all time was spent at their house in KC when I was 10. That was one of the few times all our families got together, Uncle David & his wife Evelyn, Peb and Jack and my family...
     "Jack Robinson's parents lived in Borger, TX, in the Texas panhandle, where my family had moved from Gilmer, TX when I was six months old. We lived there from 1942 until 1946, when we moved to Bartlesville, OK.
     "I remember visiting Ruby, Jack's mother, who lived there, right after I graduated from OU. I graduated in January, 1964, and worked construction for three months (prior to going on active duty in the Army) in the same refinery that my dad helped build as a young civil engineer in the early 1940's. Jack's father, Tom Robinson, was an even more avid fisherman than Jack was, but he passed away sometime in the late 1950's. Anyway, I had a chance to visit and get to know Ruby before she passed away.
     "Then, a year and a half later, while I was still in the Army, I visited Peb & Jack after I graduated from the Defense Language Institute West Coast in Monterey, CA in September, 1965, on my way to my first duty station in Germany. They always rolled out the red carpet."1

Marriage*say 1933 She married Jack Robinson say 1933.1 

Family 3

Pebble Culpepper married second, Jack Robinson who was employed by TWA. I recall that Bert Emery, Aunt Pebble's son from her first marriage, came to visit us in Bartlesville, OK, when I was 8 or 9 years old. He had a falling out with Pebble and Jack, and disappeared. They looked for him for years, and had private investigators look for him, but he was never heard of again. Jack and Pebble lived in Chicago for a number of years, and later moved to Kansas City, MO. They had a wonderful home on Houston Lake, between Kansas City and Parkville, MO, and I have many fond memories of Christmas vacations there. Uncle Jack taught me how to shoot a 22 rifle and a shotgun, and I enjoyed hunting rabbits in a snow covered field in back of their home when I was 10.1

Noonday couple still in love after more than 75 years


By Jacque Hilburn, Feature Writer

It cost Bob Culpepper, 97, his last dime to claim his sweetheart and soulmate.

"I don't know how to say it, I just fell pretty deep for her," he said softly. "I gave the preacher who was marrying us the last dime I had. I didn't think much about it, I was very excited to marry this thing."

Recalling their long ago, two-year courtship, Thelma Culpepper, 93, said, "We met on a blind date. I don't know who fell for who first, we just fell for each other. And we've been partners ever since."

It's been almost 76 years since the couple wed. Both attribute hard work and clean living to keeping their enduring relationship fresh and alive.

Much of their success seems also to stem from attitude - there's not much they won't tackle.

He still mows the lawn, she still weeds.

They both cook, garden and play a mean game of dominoes.

As they say in the movies, it's a wonderful life.

"We're still going," Culpepper said, eyes flashing. "My going got tough, but I'm still going."

YOUNG LOVE
As Valentine's Day approaches, the couple, their hair glistening white, paused to reflect on their lives and relationship, and share a few words of advice for long-lasting love.

They recommend good communication, honesty and commitment to keeping a marriage strong, in good times and bad.

"Life wasn't always a bed of roses, but we survived," Mrs. Culpepper said.

The couple married Aug. 24, 1931 as the nation was gripped by the Great Depression.

He was 21, she was 18.

"We had a real hard life," Mrs. Culpepper said from their Noonday home of almost 40 years. "We didn't have a dime. Nobody had any money in those days."

It was a no-frills union - there was no money for a wedding or a honeymoon or a place to hang their hats.

"We stayed at my aunt's house," Culpepper said. "We were married on a Monday and by Thursday, we started picking cotton."

Ten months later, they became parents.

"After we married, I worked like he did in the field and helped him any way I could," Mrs. Culpepper said, grasping her husband's weathered hand. "We're best friends."

They eventually scraped up enough money to purchase a little land, a few head of cattle and a shell of a house.

It had no electricity, water or sewer, but it became home.

They sweltered in the summer and shivered in the winter. And along the way, they added a second child.

The Culpeppers said they stuck together through hard times, pursuing a variety of jobs to care for their growing family.

He farmed, hauled ice, delivered groceries, hauled lumber, drove a bus and cut hair.

She churned butter, sewed clothes and juggled kids.

"He used to go to town on Saturday and take what butter I would make," Mrs. Culpepper said. "He would hook up two mules and it would take him all day to get to Tyler and back."

When he arrived, there would be a line of townspeople waiting to buy it, Culpepper said.

The family survived on mostly homegrown early peas and sweet potatoes, and cornbread drenched in Mrs. Culpepper's rich creamy butter.

"We still eat pretty much what we want," Mrs. Culpepper said. "He still loves sweet potatoes, but I don't like the butter they make now. It's not real."

As the years passed, the couple said they didn't always agree.

"We never had a fight, but we sometimes argued," Mrs. Culpepper said. "No couple gets along perfect all the time. My advice to couples is to stay together. If you separate, you'll never get back together, I think. I could have left a couple of times, but didn't. We just talked it out and worked it out."

He added, "You should try to make a living and do things right."

CHANGING TIMES
By 1968, the couple purchased their dream home, a modest Ranch complete with plumbing, located just across the field from the farmhouse.

"It even had air conditioning in it," Mrs. Culpepper said. "We splurged a little. We really thought we had made it, and I guess we did in a sense."

Culpepper eventually opened a small barber shop beside his home and continued cutting hair until the age of 80.

They still live in that cherished house, the walls adorned with family pictures and mementos.

In the corner of the kitchen sits the old butter churn.

"We didn't have a lot of money, but what we did have really blessed our lives," Mrs. Culpepper said.

While the house hasn't changed much, the area around them has.

Texas Highway 155 divides the pastureland they used to farm, and new brick homes dot the hilly landscape behind their home.

Other things in their lives seem to stay the same.

Mr. Culpepper likes Coca-Cola and his wife prefers Dr Pepper.

Their son, Jesse Culpepper, still lives across the field.

And Saturday afternoons are spent with relatives, playing "Chicken Foot" at the dining table.

Although the pair remains largely independent, their daughter, Alma Barnes, has moved in to keep the happy couple out of trouble.

"There's never a dull moment around here," she said.

Her mission appears to be a losing battle.

With spring approaching, the couple said they already divided up lawn care duties.

"As long as we can, we're going to do our yard," Mrs. Culpepper said, peering at her mostly dormant backyard.

Her husband agreed, saying, "It costs too much to hire someone."6
