Ann, I'm so sorry about the loss of your Dad. He was such a kind man. I will always remember the love your family showed sis and I. As life goes on I know you will think of him throughout your days and carry his love in your heart.

Bob, was super nice to me when I was a close friend to his daughter Gale. Remember sitting with him having beers and watching the Wheel of Fortune at his Wilmington home in 86' and 87'. Great times. Tim Smith.
