While searching for contact information for Mr. Potts, I ran across this obituary & wanted to express my deepest condolences. My Dad asked me to help him contact his old friend Homer a couple of years ago to no avail. Daddy passed away Jan 24th never knowing Mr. Potts had preceded him. I'm sure they've had their reunion now along with all their old buddies, Dottie and my Mom, Joyce who left us just 9 days before Daddy. My family & I are so very sorry.
