Not sure what to say?

Bud and I were classmates at Decatur High School, 1953, in the college prep curriculum.

Tom,
I'm so sorry to hear of your fathers passing. Just relaxing at his home with you, he & Henry are some of my fondest memories. You and your family are in my thoughts.
Love, Alex

Dr. Veech, it was truly a privilege and honor to be able to call you a friend. You always found time to help me better understand how to interpret my data, all at the same time asking if "I'm sure that I am not a smaller version of a Samoan". One of my most fondest memories was when I saw you drive up in your VW along side your partner Henry, your beloved Golden Retriever. Dr. Veech, thank you sir for your many scientific contributions. You will be missed. Gilberto N. Carmona Sr (Tito)

Dear Dr. Veech,
It was my great pleasure to know you in person and learn and admire your work.
I wish you rest well in peace.
I also hope that your pioneering work will be followed and continued by many other scientists.
With great respect,
B.J. Song
