Archie,

Congratulations on a successful career serving Pittsboro.   You and Peggy are such a fine example of the best Pittsboro has to offer.   I’m reminded of Peggy’s many loyal years of music playing at your church.   

And your son is carrying on your fine servant’s heart, working at Lowe’s Building Supply, where he is ALWAYS so friendly to me.

Ida and I also thank you for the great used appliances we have recieved from you.
