Howdy! I'm at work browsing your blog from my new iphone! Just wanted to say I love reading
through your blog and look forward to all your posts! Keep up the great work!
Oh wow, I grew up in Mapleton getting candy from him every Sunday. I didn't know he was from Mt Pleasant and now I live in Mt Pleasant. I didn't know he passed until I saw your post. Thank you. I'm friends with some of his family too. I wish I'd have known.
