Donna:
I just read in the Sacramento Bee of yur Mother's passing. I also learned that your Father is also gone. My sympathy to you and your family.
I worked for your Father at Aerojet in its infancy. He was a brillant man and the perfect boss.
You may also remember I was a friend of Mary and Art Coleman.
I have thought about your parents often and disappointed that I have not seen them in many years.
My address is 12333 Lee School Rd. in Wilton, CA 95693.
Sincerely,
Pat Compton
