Narrative

Without ever being given a legal name, he was known as Bookey(pronounced BOO-key) until age four, when his sister Lois - still ateenager - took matters in hand and asked him what name he wanted. Hereplied "Robert E. Lee." She thought this a little pretentious andreduced it to just Robert, no middle name. She went to the countycourthouse in Mt. Vernon and initiated a supplemental reportreflecting his new name. On his birth certificate, one can see thatthe space for his name was left blank and later "Robert" was added inanother handwriting style.
He attended Kirkwood Elementary school in Atlanta.
