We were so sorry to see of Sam's passing. My husband's grandfather was Charles Wickard and his father's name was Harry E. Wickard. We live at 1121 Acre Drive in Chapel Hill and are sorry we never got to meet Sam or Goldie.

May God give you strength and comfort in the days ahead.

In Christian love,
Frank & Sue Wickard
