I only just heard and send my sympathies and prayers to all of you. Mr. B. has extended himself as a tour guide away from home on a number of high school and college trips as well as always opening his home. He will be missed.

My condolences to the Blakely family, I'm sorry I couldn't offer them in person. I'll miss Bill, and the "It's Johnny Fastwalker!" greeting I received each time I saw Bill at the paper mill.
