Judy, I'm saddened by the news of your father's passing. He was a truly good man, and Bartlesville has lost a real leader.

I never knew K I personally, but he had the type of personality and presence that made you glad that he was in sight when you'd come into the post office. It felt so strange when he retired, though I am sure it was well deserved. You are so fortunate, as are we, to have had such a positive role model in this community.

Judy, your father was a true pillar in the community and everyone knew and loved him. I always enjoyed visiting with him in the bank. You have my deepest sympathy for your loss.

My sincerest sympathies to the June Family. I lived across the street from Mr. June from the age of 2 until I was in the fifth grade. To a kid, Mr. June was a wonderful subsitiute Grandpa always willing to help, share a smile or buy Cool-Aid on a hot summer day. He also helped my little sister and I send our letters to Santa- complete with a picture in the newspaper. A truely good person who touched many lives and will be dearly missed.
