Peyton, my sincerest condolences on the passing of your father. He will be missed and memories of him cherished by all whose lives he enriched. I fondly remembered the Christmas when your family shared Christmas dinner with me at Bill's house when I was unable to go home for the holidays. Thank you, Peyton, for having such a wonderful father and family.
