My condolences to all families. I have great memories of both as my late husband managed Northern Farm. I would love to be at visitation today but my now husband has lung cancer and has to be careful. Joan Speece-Kessler.

I have fond memories of Mr and Mrs Sidley. My parents, Mike and Helen were friends for many years and my dad loved when Bob turned the controls over to him on their flights to Pinehurst. God speed and blessings. Leslie Burchell-Fox
