To Slim's family; I am sorry to hear of Slim's passing. I was privileged to worked with Slim back in the day and found him to be conscientious and considerate, with a great sense of humor. Slim was an all-round class act who never let you down. Take solace in the thought that he is with Marge now, even while you miss him. My sincere condolences, Tom Pearson - Posted by: Tom Pearson (co-worker/friend) on: Nov 17, 2016
