Three Beards

Another of the many wonderful e-mails that Brad starting sending shortly after Dad's death:



That's Leroy Hershberger to your father's left. After I introduced them they became fast friends. Leroy and his family I've known for 40 years; he was about 9 then. They are Amish-Mennonite. Leroy is a remarkable guy---a Kansas farm mechanic with a BA from Yale in English Literature. When this photograph was taken he was again adopting a traditional old-order Amish look in tribute to his grandfather who had recently died.
