To Joe and Family

I remember Lonnie from being our assistant Scout Master to Mr. Mims Troop #351, at Frank L. Stanton.

He was always patient with us, as well as knowledgable of scouting. Quiet as it was kept he was really the Scout Master, ha-ha.

We had fun on our over night camping trips and outings-so Joe you had a helluva big brother.

Rebembering Him Fondly,

Dr. Larry F. Hunter & Earistean Ward
