“In loving memory of Archie Vaughn Deel, Some of my fondest memories hanging out camping watching Langley’s strobe airport lights and the Sunday dinners Kim would make of rabbit taters and corn. My main regret was not keeping in touch the later years. My heart is lifted knowing how much you are loved and the wonderful life you shared in this world. You will surely be missed.”
