Orlando I did not personally know your father. I remember you as one of the nicest students I could ever have in my Vocal Music Classes at Aberdeen Elementary School. That was so long ago. Mrs. Lurton is a Dear friend and I asked her tonight if she remembered you. Her quick reply was; "I certainly do!" After reading about your Dad and the wonderful things people had to say, I know he was a Great Father and a wonderful, religious man. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I remember that one of my three children met you somewhere after they were grown and you introduced yourself and told them you had been in my Music Classes. That was very nice of you. I think you were playing in a band? I remember you as being very musical. May God be with you and with all your family. Parents are so special. My Dear Mother lived to be 95 but I still miss her.
