Randy and Family,
I am so sad to hear about WW. I onced lived on Oxford Ave in Fairlawn across from WW, then he would come in the store when he was at Harvey's. He always made me laugh. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. My deepest sympathies are with you and your family.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Mr. Miles passing. I worked with him at Harvey's where he took me under his wing and looked out for me. Oh, the stories he could tell!! He taught me a lot and Flo, I do want to thank you for bringing him by to see me a few weeks ago. You came in to get me to go to the car as he was too weak. I'll never forget some of the times we had nor how he protected me. He also taught me a valuable lesson about NOT wearing snake skin shoes!!! May you be at peace and rest well my dear buddy..."Red"
