I went to school with a bunch of O'Steen's their parents were said to have moved to Florida from GA. Their parents sold fishing bait and the father was also a local farmer grew vegetables and such....................................... As the boys grew up and got old enough they got part time jobs. A couple of them worked at the local supermarket which had a butcher shop on site. One of the boys learned to be a butcher right there in that store from the man who owned the store. But I could not tell you for the life of me who the parents of these kids were now! I use to know them all so well but they are now long gone.
