From Kathy to Kathy--across the miles and through the years--Love and prayers of understanding at the loss of a dad. Miles to go, and promises to keep become, of course, the joys and love and laughter he knew and shared with you--promises kept, and miles and miles of travels along life's paths. We shall meet again, in peace and joy won't we all?

Jim: I will always treasure that house with the steep driveway and the party at auht Re's where you autographed the cuff of my white shirt and invited friends and myself to watch the Redskins practice featuring Sammy Baugh, Wilbur Moore and of course, yourself. Godspeed, Jim. A life well spent.
