Maurice D. Nickle

I remember that Uncle Maurice used to smoke a pipe and he had this old coffee pot (metal/tin, I think, and big) that he used to make coffee in. Anyone else remember it? He was also always offering me something to eat or drink each time I had the pleasure of visiting with him.

Worked the night shift with "Mo" for several years at the HEdrick Central Office of Southwestern Bell Telephone Company. Was just thinking about him this weekend. I should have called. I'll see him again someday.
