Any one of us would have been proud to write 
this tribute, but it is fitting we should share wt. The 
lines below are made up entirely of direct quotations 
from a few of the hundreds of letters we received from 
persons, in the trade and out, who felt impelled 
to pay respect to a man whose love of life made friends 
for him as easily as shaking hands. The pictures were 
chosen to try to show that undefeated spirit 
which is our clearest, cherished memory of him. 











1880-1950
