I worked with Charlie at Commercial

Sash & Door from 1953 to about 1965.

We have exchanged Christmas Cards all these years.

Dear Charlie:

I'll see you in Heaven sometime to

personally thank you for all that

you did for me. Right now I'd just

like to say "thank you" for being

my friend and I will never forget

you, you will always be in my

prayers
