Mrs Commee, Tim, Tom, Jeff and Jim. (and your families) Please accept my condolences on the passing of your husband & dad. Thinking and reflecting about him and our past adventures in little league baseball, highschool pranks Mr Fables, and bottle rocket "combat" in your backyard were things I'll never forget and will always cherish. I hope this finds you all well and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Your friend , Scot
