To the Whalley Family, my sincere condolences on your loss. I have great respect and admiration for your family, as I bought my first motorcycle from Mike Whalley from your location in front of KMart in Hooksett in 1980 and still remain friends with Jim Whalley today. May your thoughts of Edith bring a smile to your lips before they bring tears to your eyes. My best, Paul Hanson and family, Pembroke, NH.
