Linda,
Mom and I were so sad to hear of Hugh’s passing. The last time I saw him was at my Dad’s graveside funeral out at Blanche ten years ago. I always thought a lot of him and your Mom. My Mom and yours were working at the bank together when your Dad first met June. Mom said he was plastering the ceiling and a big glob fell off his finishing tool and hit your Mom on the side of her head. That’s how they met. 🙂 I’m sure you’ve heard that story before. My Dad thought the world of your Dad, too. Again, so sorry for your loss.
