I was shocked and saddened to read of the death of your son and brother. Vicky, I will never forget the day you and he and some other Cub Scouts rode with me to the Ice Capades in Salem and my car broke down on Christiansburg Mountain on the way home! Oh, what a cold night that was...Then your father was so kind to go and haul my car back to Wytheville the next day. I will never forget it.
