August was a friend of my sister, Peggy and brother, Glenn Richardson, in the Woodrow community and Cooper Schools. And the Falkenbert family farmed 'just down the road from us. Glenn talked of August being 'such a good person, when they met during adult lives. And I would see him when I was in the tire and truck business. 'What a nice man and so polite. Another passing of people our family knew from Woodrow farming, a long time ago now.
