A generous memtor to a young man starting out in the hardware business. My condolences on his passing. Epitaph On A Friend An honest man here lies at rest, The friend of man, the friend of truth, The friend of age, the guide of youth; Few hearts like his, with virtue warm'd, Few heads with knowledge so inform'd; If there's another world, he lives in bliss; If there is none, he made the best of this. Robbie Burns
