Even though
almost 39 years have passed since I last saw him, I will always cherish my
memories of Bubby as a happy, fun loving person who enjoyed life to its
fullest. I was shocked and dismayed to learn of his passing, and express
my deepest sympathy to his family. | |

Although I
have not seen Hinton in years, I was shocked to hear of his death. We were
childhood friends in 'East End' and attended the same schools. I share
your loss and send my deepest sympathy. May God bless you and comfort
you. | |
