Archie was my friend and I miss him very much. When Archie came to Textron I don't think he remembered my name so he called me Ms. VooDoo since I work VooDoo every year. Then he would always come to my desk and ask me what is for lunch so i started making him lunch. He is very missed and my heart goes out to his wife and family.
