I am so very sorry for your loss. Indy was an inspiration to me from the first time that he read a book to me when I was approximately 10 years old. I am 64 years old now , yet still remember that . He was a true gentleman
in every sense of the word. I am sick that I missed his service, as I just found out about this yesterday. Please accept my sincere apologies for not being there to say good by. Jimmie Giglio and Family.
