Leigh,
10 years ... seems like yesterday when we lost your dad. Same thing when we were in Kaiserslautern with both of your great parents. We visited the neighborhood in January while in Europe ... all gone! New apartments now up there with young families. Memories strong however ... as they will always be. Your parents would be very proud of you and your beautiful family. Stay in touch. Love,
Wayne & Vivian

Leigh,
Vivian and I are saddened to learn just today (5/10/09) about your Dad. The last time I spoke to him he found me on top of a Tennessee mountain, calling me from Paris on his way to Hong Kong or someplace. The message ... "just wanted you to know I still love you!" As a boss, peer, neighbor, fellow hunter, Vietnam War brother, ... whatever - your Mom and Dad were great friends and we grieve for you, your family and all in the Army family. They will continue to be loved and missed...

You all have my deepest sympathy - I never worked directly for General King, but I knew many who had and they loved working for him. May God bless you and keep you in this difficult time.
