Jimmy and George,
I’m sorry for your loss. Your dad was a very good man and I’m sure he will be missed by many. I have fond memories of both of you. Margaret and I will be sending our prayers to ease your pain.
Your Friend Always,
Mr. Paris used to call on my father in his office and my father Dr. Carey Hedgpeth always told me what a gentleman he was and one of his favorite people. I am so sorry for your loss. Drina C Hedgpeth
