Dear Gillespie Family,
Please accept my sincere sympathy. I remember fondly the day I was so fortunate to meet and be hired by Mr. G. My 9 years at Allied were among the best of times. We have lost a very kind, gentle man, and great role model. Madeline(Mandy) Goff

Mr. Gillespie,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

I was sad to hear the news of your dad's death.... A walk on Crystal Lake Road always became a better one when Mr. Gillespie was outside... It always amazed me that he remembered so many people's names! What a loss to our special community!
