With deepest sympathy may you find comfort and peace knowing that our Heavenly Father cares for you in your time of grief. John 14:1 Do not let your heart be troubled have faith in God.

Rene and I went through Navy Boot Camp at Bainbridge Maryland in July-September 1955, he was a good friend and "shipmate" and I often thought of him and the other Hudson recruits that were there with us. Fred Gould Plymouth, New Hampshire
