Hello Helen. How well I remember when I first met you and Hale at the wedding celebration party Margaret and Barney gave for me and Dave Pierson (who died in 1989). You two were so admirable as a couple and as individuals, and are some of the very special people in my mind from Lincoln, Nebraska. And remember, you gave my Katie weaving lessons. My sympathy to you. Lonnie Pierson Dunbier

Thanks so much to those of you who have sent your love and condolences to my grandma, Helen. I print the entries for her and read them to her. Your memories of Mac have meant so much to her. Thank you again for keeping her and the family in your thoughts and prayers,

Helen, Bill,Lynn et al,
You are in my thoughts -- with fond memories of Judge McCown and of Bob as a classmate in school and at First Pres in Beatrice. I wish you well and know you will be comforted by all of the accomplishments as well as the wonderful personality that were special to the life of Hale McCown.

DEAR FAMILY: HALE WAS A NEBRASKA TRACK FAN WHO SELDOM MISSED AN INDOOR OR OUTDOOR TRACK MEET IN LINCOLN. WHEN I WASN'T HELPING JUDGING THE OFFICIATING I SAT NEAR HIM AND ENJOYED OUR VISITS VERY MUCH. AS A LAWYER IN OMAHA I CAN ATTEST TO THE HIGH RESPECT HALE ENJOYED IN OMAHA. HE WAS JUST A WONDERFUL PERSON IN EVERY WAY. MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO YOU ALL.
