  Hello Jean. My father and motherwe're win and peggy cresswell from back near deer lake. Not sure if you remember. You had dinner at our house a few times way back. The white house with pond and barn
  out the dining room windows.My father was a contractor. Anyway .my daughter is out there as of tonite to attend that big concert. I tell her stories of how I knew you and Muhammad and I don't think
  she believes me. I didn't know if you were still working or nothe. I guess I was hoping she could meet you so she would believe me but I am sure you are very busy. And she is going to the big concert
  in the desert tomorrow night. If nothing else it was nice to hear your name.

  Hi Bucko,
  
  The last time I saw you was at the Dunes in 1982 when I had just finished school and was working for Union Carbide at their plants in NV and CA. I stopped by to say hi and you were so gracious and
  gave my colleagues and I tickets to see the floor show. The guys at Carbide tales about it for years.
  
  You also helped my Dad Bob Purcell get situated in Las Vegas shortly after my Mother died. He relocated and lived in Las Vegas for about 10 years before moving back to be near my family in Baltimore.
  He passed away in 2000.
  
  I grew up hearing lots of stories about you as Joan and Tom Kilroy were my parents good friends. You've had an amazing life! God Bless!
  
  Best regards,
  
  Bob

  Gene:
  
  I know you are heartbroken like the rest of the world over the passing of Ali. He was loved by all. I want to thank you so much for the time you brought the Champ to the Tropicana and the three of us
  had dinner. I will never forget that night. Heaven is a better place with the Champ there.
