My gosh Knox I can't believe it. We were planning both a class get together and a SF Vets of VN meeting. You were a good friend in HS and a soldier in combat. Rest with Michael the Archangel, pick up your shield, and the rest of us Salpointe vets will join you at sometime. Dan Southard

I'm looking at my first communion picture at SS.Peter and Paul in 1948. There on the front looking as pius as the rest of us is Knox. I'm sorry we never reconnected after we graduated from Salpointe. Rest in peace,"Knoxie"

I have lost one of the best friends I've ever had. Knox was a friend me, my family, and particularly to my late husband. He stood in for my daughter's father at graduations and weddings. We shared laughter and tears. Our families were blended, we called each other family and grieve with Salli, Caroline, & Knoxie. Love you, Knox
