    I'm the fellow that Dolan offered the Datsun parts to a few years back. I came to your house as a stranger and left feeling I had known Jack and Dolan for a long time.Jack is a genuine American and Dolan a chip off the block. No doubt Jack is in Heaven looking for a project and a place to work in the shade.God Bless ,Rick

    None of you other than the Mother will remembe rme, not many of we old ones left around. I was born in Tuxedo and lived there most of my life until I was almost 14 years of agee. I knew the Beddingfield family and even though I have been gone many years from there, a part of my heart will always be there. My Mother was Maude Wolfe Morgan and my Dad Charles Morgan my Mother died July 18, 1936 and was a freind to most of the Mill Village families. I know you think I am odd to be sending this to the family, but even though you all don't know me ( I am 86 years old now) I still hold on to the happy memories and the kindness shown to me and my siblings after our Mother died, May God bless each of you and give you comfort, I am so gratefull to have been those few years with people such as this family and I know the sorrow you are feeling, but God gives us the help we need I lost two brothers, a sister, my youngest daughter and my husband in less than four years so I know the sadness you feel God bless each of you
