Bill,

I’m sorry for your loss. Your dad was a good friend and a true professional. He always helped me and
Sue Ella with any financial need we had. In later years I would just call and tell him what I needed and he would say the money is there come by and sign the papers when you can. I know how bad health can wear on the whole family, you have my deepest sympathy.
