Dear Lydia and Bill, Jr.,
Your Dad will be missed...but not forgotten. I have such fond memories from my teenage years of both him and your mom when we played golf in the Friday night scrambles at the club. Most recently, however, has been the last few years at Crescent Place. We had such an enjoyable visit last fall having lunch at the Colonel's Lady and then driving around Shelbyville reminiscing about the way things used to be.

I wish you God's peace and comfort,,,

Good evening, I know your Dad was ready to join your Mom and play golf again. We stopped by Sunday morning when visiting Marian and of course, Gloria provided the update. We were on our way out of town so we will not be there for the service. Thank you for sharing your Dad with us. We met him late in his life but cherished his stories. Kendra & Gary Rivoli and Ken McAnear.
