I received knowledge of Red's death today. Brought back many memories of a very special employee of Thorpe Products co. I hired Red in 1957 and was always proud of the way he did his job. He was loyal, honest, trustworthy an always did his job. I do not remember at anytime that he did not do his job with great efficiency and integrity. I am sorry that I did not know of his death until after the fact. He was a good man. Mel Proctor
