So sorry to hear of the passing of your father. He was a very nice person and jokester. I will surely miss his "short" jokes whenever i came into the association office. May God continue to hold your family in his wonderous arms and comfort you when need be, because John 14:18 says "I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you". So rest assured that he is still with you. Take care and God bless. Judi Butler, Landover, Md.

I will always remember how helpful Mr. Hayward was when I started my first job at the Navy Yard. No matter what was wrong with your computer program, he could help you figure out the problem. This was way back when you got a core dump and read the machine language code looking for errors.
