    I have just heard of the passing of Mr. Humphries. My condolences to Mrs. Humphries, David, Michael, and Larry. I know he is a good man for raising three very good sons. I am glad to have known him and the boys while teaching Ag. in Greenville. He treated me well and I appreciated that as a beginning teacher. Prayers and blessings for you all. You will be strong while still missing him.
