What a kind man and was married to an equally dear woman. I knew them from all the years of them shipping their wonderful wood crafts at UPS. I will carry them in my memories as long as I have them. Jack and I were quite lucky to have their friendship. Our heartfelt thoughts and sympathies are with you...
