The Benkelman Post has a section where people can publish "Cards of Thanks". This week, there was one from Don Harford that I thought you'd like to read.
I was certainly surprised and pleased to receive so many cards, e-mails, phone calls and gifts from family, neighbors and friends. Each letter was opened with eager anticipation to see what the envelope contained. Some were humorous and some were serious with many handwritten notes that brought back memories of earlier years. It is a rather humbling experience for a worn-out “Old Coot” like me to be remembered by so many of you. There have been so many things happen and change since I was a kid – from a horse and buggy to 500 horsepower tractors. One of the most awesome to me is the thought of a man from Earth walking on the moon. Thanks for making this a special birthday for me.
