To the family of PC;

I would like to express my deep regret in the passing of PC. He was my supervisor in the 60's when I worked for Western Electric. He was not only a good supervisor but also a good and pleasant person. He will be sadly missed.

We were so shocked to hear of Mr. Moreland's death. He was always such a nice person and so friendly. He was a great neighbor to my family on Paradise Drive and just a wonderful person to know.

My late husband, Clyde Anderson, always talked about Mr. Perry rooming with him on the Alaskian cruise.

Many people loved Mr. Moreland for his friendliness and because he was a good Christian man. Know that we will be remembering you during these difficult days ahead.
