He was the only Uncle that ever tried to help me when I needed advice for my education. I will miss him dearly even though I did not seen him for some years. I will never forget our chess games as he taught me the game from the beginning. He sent me a post card in 2004 and I have it tacked up on my board so I can read /remember his humorous side, when he wrote about "we don't have a Sammy but we have a Blackstone".
My sincere sympathy to my Aunt Jean and all my cousins.
