I will send you a photo of Bud when he visited our Montclair home on leave during the war. it was Thanksgiving. I loved hearing the quotations from the book about the pilots. No wonder he lived a long and fruitful life, not being a party boy in the service. Bob and I visited him and Rachel in St. Genevieve during a trip to Michigan. They took us all over town, their church, the riverfront, etc. Thanks for all the messages. Love, Doris
