Brenda and Bridgett,

I am glad I got to see Jr. and visit with him a few weeks ago at Harp's. Looking back Jr., Randy Clark, and I were just kids when I went to work with them at the AHTD in 1979. We had a lot of good times together.

Junior was a quiet hero. He didn't talk much about his service in Vietnam but I know he made a great sacrifice for our country. I appreciate him for that.

He was a great friend and though our paths went separate ways in the 1980s I will miss him.

May God bless you both during this time.

Roy Ragland
