  2. Neil & Mark,
    So sorry to hear that your Dad has passed away. I will always remember the good times we had in FFA together as Vergennes and State Officers. Also the summer I worked on your Grand Dad’s farm. He raised two hard working young men as I see in the two of you today. I know the past few years have been hard for you with him not being around. Always know that I have the deepest respect for you guys and your Dad.

  3. Hi Neal &Mark Writing to say heart felt loss for your Dad. He was always Johnny on the spot to help The Automotive Program for many years. Over the years we made many trips up to New Haven Tire, Shadow programs ,field trips, and co op for others, certainly your Dad was never too busy not to help with improving community relations, Neal & Mark Time has not worn away with me you guys and myself will always be family.. Thanks to you I know have many fond memories to look back on.
    God Bless , Prayers For Dad , and your family.
