So sorry to hear about Horace. Horace worked with my dad years ago at Singer. I have a lot of good memories of Horace even though I have not seen him in several years.I remember that Horace liked to square dance. I was just asking about him the other day. My prayers go out to all of Horace's family. He was a good hardworking man and todays generation would benefit from following Horace's example. RIP ole friend.
