We were so sorry to hear of your loss -- the last time I saw your Dad he had stopped by to visit with my Dad, John Knabenshue. It was a lot of fun to sit and listen to some of their tall tales.. May God bless and comfort each of you at this most difficult time and in the days ahead.

Red was one of the first people I met and worked with when I moved back to Buckhannon in 1970. I found him to be quick with a smile. He was a talented equipment operator. His best attribute was he always made time for his old friends. I will miss John. Steve Holmes
