I remember Mr. Bemis so vividly. In my early teens we spent allot of time at Donna's house. Her father was always around it seemed. He was with Ron Ruel when he had his industrial accident at Fiber Processing and gave him medical attention immediately. Such a solid man who loved his family.
Rest in Peace Mr. Bemis. My deepest sympathies to the Bemis family.

I must say that the Andy I knew was a very kind and sensitive man who left a good impression on me even though I didn't know him for very long. He was respectful and always willing to help in whatever way he could. May he rest in God's unconditonal love.
