It was Thanksgiving day three years ago that I received the terrible call about my brother. I still miss him so much and we lost him much too soon. Thanksgiving is a happy/sad day now although we still have so much for which we are thankful. Happy Thanksgiving to all the Federal family.

My condolences to you and your family. Patrick Pierpoint

Linda,
I do not know if you remember me, but I was at your house many times when Cleveland and I attanded Hollin Hall Elementary together. We both played clarinet and were in those advanced math classes through Mark Twain and FHHS. We were the only two survivors of the recorder experiment (4th Grade?) so we had to do all the parts for the finale of The Peer Gynt Suite, so I knew him as well as anyone, I think.
We never saw each other after graduation, so I would be very thankful for a chance to catch up on his life. It sounds fascinating. chris.a.renaud@gmail.com I am so sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Chris Renaud
