BRAD, I THINK OF ALL THE THINGS WE DID WHEN WE WE KIDS.IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE WE MADE IT THIS LONG. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE NOT SEEN EACH OTHER FOR 30 PLUS YEARS I STILL REMEMBER THE FRIENDSHIP WE DEVELOPED AND I AM AT A LOSS TO UNDERSTAND HOW WE LOST TRACK OF EACH OTHER.THE LAST 30 YEARS OF YOUR LIFE ARE A COMPLETE MYSTERY TO ME. I WOULD LOVE FOR SOMEONE IN YOUR FAMILY TO CONTACT ME AND FILL IN THE BLANKS. I ALWAYS HAD RESPECT FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. IT IS STRANGE HOW FREQUENTLT I SEE THE NAME OF A LONG LOST FRIEND SHOW UP IN THE OBITS. ACTUALLY IT IS DOWN RIGHT SCARY AS I KNOW MY NAME WILL SOON BE THERE.MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.I WILL SEE YOU WHEN I GET TO THE OTHER SIDE.
