Dear Betty, Skip, Margaret and Ethel. Cousin Mason was. S such a special person who had the STRENGTH to live life the way he wanted to during a time when the lines were tightly drawn . He saw beyond the boundaries and moved beyond them. He knew the joy of love and music. Mason was creating and appreciating the universal release of music until the end. Flashback--1967-68 I 'll never forget what a dashing figure he cut in that sporty Cougar! He and Karl P. are with us--I know they are telling us that this life is so short--embrace those we and live with no regrets.

Remembering Mason calls to mind our being childhood neighbors and friends, as well as reflections of his gregarious nature. Complimentary to his diverse intellect was a love of music, where he used his vast,
appealing collection in entertaining others.
May remaining attached to
