Dr.Zipper and family,

I first met your dad while working at the front desk at the Hunt Ctr. He waited in the lobby for your mom and was determined to find a way to kept the lobby warm for us. He timed the door and spent more time trying to think of ways to fix the problem than anyone else. Lucky for me I got transfered upstairs to work with you and I remember when you told him he was happy I would be warm.

You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Donna, Bill and Haley Lawnsby
