I'll always remember Uncle DeWitt telling me, when I was little, "You've got to get to college, to get an education! That way you can go out an make something of yourself!" Those words stayed with me throughout college and to this day. The world has lost a man that kept a smile in his voice and kind word for others, may the Lord welcome him home. - Kind Regards, David Harvey
