Growing up “Flash” was always the guy down the street. But no matter when I passed him. There was always a “Hey Bub”. When I started working at the mill…Seeing him at work….I still got the smile and “Hey Bub”… Once in a while he would ask how my Dad and Mom were. He was a quiet sole but well liked and respected by anyone who knew him.
Beverley & Betty-Jean Colp
