Condolences to the family of a friend of my childhood. Life seems so short when you consider that it was only a short time ago when we were playing and were concerned only about our next adventure. I know that you miss him now but I am thankful that he was a Christian and is now in the company of our father. In Christian Love, Melvin Proctor
