Bill Couch was a very nice man. I too worked at the Fed and Mr. Couch did some home repairs for me. He and my husband, Paul, built a screen in porch on our first home. Beverly Martin

Karen and Don,
So sorry for the loss of uncle Billy. My dad (Ted) always loved him and thought so much of him. I had many fond memories of him from my childhood.
Love,
Lori Russell Rutherford
