Bill and Family,
I am very sad to read of your Dad’s passing. (Our dads worked for many years at the post office.)
Y’all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Bill and Becky’s children, I am sorry for the loss of your Daddy. I have known them since I can remember. I do not get out much and had not seen Bill for some time. He worked at the P.O. with my son in law Paul Caldwell.
