Well, well well. Carter, Dr. Fig, my long time and old friend. My heart weeps for you and your family. It looks like you are a loving family and you are an AF Brat that makes you "specialer" to us. I only wish I could have had a day or two with your Dad to get him to sign my book, "Greatest Generation" and a B-17 crewman to boot. Great plane, horrible mission and bad survivability numbers.
We really need to talk. I hope you can come to the ranch with Mary and just hang out with us. Drink a pop and talk about how blest we are to have the draw of parents we got.
We will pray for you and you family. I presume you Mom is surviving and coping OK. Always tough. My Dad died 10 years ago and I think about him frequently and think, "I'll call Dad." No, I won't, Verizon doesn't go that far.
Best loving regards and a big old bear hug. Dick
