To the family of Herbert Williams, years ago when I lived in hampton
I used to visit Herbert when he stayed at Mary Lees(she has passed)
and then at the Va Hospital with a dear friend of mine Ray Cassidy
(he has passed). I hadn't visited Herbert for a long time. The last
time i went was with Ray's wife Marvene. He seemed like he didn't
recognize us or remember us. We spoke very loudly and he didn't
seem like he heard us but seemed glad to have a visit. I am sorry I
didn't visit more. Our condolences to his family. And we would also
like to add our thanks to the Va hospital for their care of Herbert.
