Condolences

Dear Family Members,
It is with much remorse that I send my condolences for your lose. Archie was a man's man and a man whom I recall from my teenage years. My best friend at the time was George Angone and he worked as a young man at King Electric with Archie. George was really fond of Archie and loved to tell us other youngsters his tales of working with such a great man. The tales were truly endearing and those memories carry on with me till this day. I called George today and told him of Archie's passing and he asked me to pass along his regrets. May God Bless Archie and your entire family.

Fondly,

Greg Anderson
