60 years ago, William and I started the 1st grade in Miss Harris' class @ Abraham Lincoln School. We had some good ole school days and some good ole Berkeley days. William was always a gentleman and I mean a gentleman indeed. The Griffin family is such a wonderful family. Many blessings to the entire family. I am praying for all. May the Lord strengthen you and keep you.
