I called and talked to dad on Thursday, he was hard to understand, we had a good talk, he still had his sense of humor as he said he was ready to kick the bucket but he wanted a Styrofoam bucked so it was soft and wouldn't hurt foot when he kicked it. We got to tell each other I love you one last time. George W. Colgrove
