They don't make them like Mr. Hatton anymore. He was a wonderful man and I am better for having known him. His jokes and playful demeanor always made him seem much younger than he was. My condolences to Bill and the rest of the family. May you find peace, and one day be able to just see the joy that he brought everyone.
