Gena, I am so sorry for your loss, I'm sorry we haven't been in touch in many a year, maybe we can correct that the next time I come to see my Dad. I ran into your Dad in the strangest places too.

Hi Gena & Carie, It is with great sorrow I write this little note remembering my long time friend. The first time Frank and I met was at A & M College in 1946. That memory is so fresh in my mind it seems like it happened only yesterday. Many good times are in my memory bank, hunting, fishing, in Arkansas and in New Mexico. I also have fond memories of working with him at WSPG and our joint family activities . He was a dear and trusted friend. I always looked forward to seeing him while he was...

Hi Gena, So sorry to hear about your dad. He was there when my dad was interred with his Marine Corp uniform. I remember going down to your house around the corner to your house and your dad showing the NASA films on the 16MM projectors. IT was great stuff. By the way I am living 5 miles from the back gate of Camp Pendleton right now.
