I was saddened to hear that my old friend Huck Finley had passed away. Huck and I had many good times together in our late teens and early twenties but lost contact when I moved to Texas. The funeral notice brought back many pleasant memories. My condolences to Huck’s family. John Dockray Villanova, Pa.
