Not sure what to say?

Mrs. Beggs, We have never met, but I knew your husbad John from basic training at Fort Dix, NJ back in 1971. I recall him as focused and serious, a very hard worker who was task oriented. Years later, teaching in Camden, I happened to see an article about John teaching in Rome. It seems like our paths crossed briefly when I ran into him somewhere, but it was a long time ago.
