HI ARLENE AND FAMILY,

I AM SORRY TO HEAR OF HUGH'S PASSING. I JUST NOW THIS WEEK FOUND OUT ABOUT HIM FROM CHARLIE SWIFT HE SENT AN EMAIL TO ME. I REMEMBER YOU AND I ON STAGE AT 8TH GRADE NIGHT. I ALSO REMEMBER MARCHING IN THE HIGH SCHOOL BAND WITH ERIC THE YEAR BEFORE WE GRADUATED, A FEW YEARS AGO! JUDY AND I SHARE THE SAME BIRTHDAY! IF ALL GOES WELL, I WILL HOPE TO SEE YOU ON OCTOBER 21ST I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. I ONLY WISH WE WERE CLOSER OVER THE LAST 58 YEARS. LIFE DOES CHANGE THINGS THAT WE DON'T REALLY EXPECT TO HAPPEN.

TAKE CARE, MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY,

DICK HOWIE CLASS OF 1965
