I do remember the day you walked up to my father and invited him to come to east haven baptist church. He heard your southern accent and felt like he was coming home. Miss Betty was a good friend to my parents during the time they lived in kalispell and continued when we visited her in Sikeston once on our way through. You and mr. Hank are missed
