"I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Lon. I remember Lon so well from the Technical Institute such a gentleman and very sincere, There was never a time that he would come in to sign that he wouldn't take time to give ya a smile and wish you a good day. They sure gained a good man up there and we lost one of the good ones. My Deepest Sympathy to the Family. RIP Lon. You were a great friend!!"
