Judy and family, what wonderful memories you will share of your loving husband and father. He is home now with his heavenly family, so grateful for the love and support each of you gave during his difficult fight for recovery from his crippling strokes. He was as brave as he was on the football field at HHS and you, Judy, were at his bedside as opposed to the sidelines, cheering him on. May you find comfort that he has been in the arms of The Great Healer and is now as free as a bird. I am so grateful to have been a member of the HHS class of 1955 and to have shared those last five years of high school in your presence and to have been a friend.

Judy, my condolences go to you and all your family. Junior and I were classmates at Westside School and HHS, and neighbors on West 7th Street. I always thought very highly of him, and was proud to call both of you friends. I know you are strong, and I send you wishes for peace and comfort.
