Not sure what to say?

I lived at Arbor Terrace for almost seven years and became a close friend to Dr. Pafford. We worked together at current events. When the audience questioned him I wrote it in large print and handed it to him so he could answer the questions of those attending, as he had hearing problems. I loved him dearly. I considered him one of my best friends. My sympathy to all of his family.

With deepest sympathy,
Doris Dean

Dear Martha,

I will forever be envious of the time you were given to enjoy all those special moments with your father.

Life has given you such a rich stock of memories. Lean on them in those sad times!

Thinking of you,
Anne-Marie

Ward was a most pleasant, friendly gentleman. My cousin will be truly missed
at "Pafford Reunions" No doubt he impacted many lives during his career.

Martha and family,
The world is a better place that Ward Pafford spent time here. He truly was a gentleman and a scholar. How wonderful that his life was so long.
Betsy Martin Bunte,
Wesleyan College '68

I was fortunate to have been a student in Dr. Pafford's classes at Emory University. He was a remarkable teacher and gentleman. He will be missed.
