I remember him from school and later in my years as an adult at the Barn Dance...where he would ask me to dance a time or two. He was so much fun and such a lovely man. He loved my persimmon pudding. I will miss him. I am sorry for the families loss and most especially for Daisy, his beautiful wife of 70 yrs.
