My mom and dad were good friends with Angie and Dewey in their early marriage days. I loved hearing stories of them playing horseshoes under jury-rigged lights on steamy Decatur nights and Hal teaching Dewey to play handball. Hal and Dewey worked together at IP for many years. While I only knew Dewey a little while growing up, I knew he was special because Hal really like him and got a sparkle in his eye whenever he spoke of their times together. I know Bonnie, Hal are happy to see their friend again and share more life stories together in heaven My sympathies go out to Angie and family.
