Jessica and Jairus, I am very sorry about the loss of your Father. He was a proud and kind hearted man who loved both of you dearly. Several times, he and I exchanged stories about our experiences in Vietnam. He served his country with honor and I respected him for that. As time passes, I hope you are able to find peace with his passing. He was a good man. Pat Pepper
