Hi Russell and family: You probably remember me, Rick Whitney from Dexter, but I remember you and Muriel at the New England Bottle Club Shows when you and Muriel were looking for insulators. You always stopped by my table to visit, which I always looked forward to. I think I even sold you an insulator or two as well. At one of the shows, April 1992, you brought me a small drug store bottle from Lewiston, Me, "Babcock & Sharpe", which I still have in my collection. I am still collecting and I think of you and Muriel when I look at it. My seepest sympathy goes out to you and your family at this time.
Sincerely,
Rick Whitney, Dexter, Me.
