Dear Tivers Family,

I was so very privilaged to work with Bill @ Garber Furs during his time there. I have never met such a wonderful human being. I am indeed blessed to have had his influence in my life until moving to Seattle to get married 4 years ago.

Please know you are all in my prayers and I will cherish the time i spent with him.

God Bless
