I'v known Mr. Farthing for years, I've never known a nicer or more kind person in my life.

Darrell,
My deepest regrets go out to you and all the family. Your Dad was one of the nicest people there was, and a ball game at Market Garden would have never been as good without your him and his goodies. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and all the family.
