The Falconer Family,
Mr. Falconer was a very sweet, nice man. He was my first "real" boss. I used to like the smell of his pipe, that was many years ago. I am happy he is now in a much better, happier place, but he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. I am really thankful I was able to know him and have him in my life. He was one of a kind.
