Brenda, Sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I remember in grade school, how lucky you were to be taken out of school to head to Daytona Beach in February. Thanks to your Dad, I am a race car fan! Losing a father is tough, as the years go by, it does get easier, I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.

Very sorry to hear of Luther's passing. I worked for Luther at the Olathe Post Office for quite a few years before he retired. He was also a good friend of my cousin, Duane Beets,another former Postmaster, who now lives in North Carolina. Our sincerest condolences.
