“My dear Uncle Jimmy, my father's youngest brother. Jimmy was always so kind and generous, giving ice cream bars and popsicles to us, his nieces and nephews, when he was an ice cream boy pedaling a bell-ringing cart in Bluffton. He gave me his beloved penny collection to encourage an interest in collecting, and forgave me readily when I admitted that I spent those coins on a Beatles magazine. Oh, how it pained him to know where his pennies had gone, but he was always the loving uncle.”
