Today is my father's 92nd birthday. He was not religious, so
I will extend to him retrospective thanks and deeply respectful memories.
Ralph
Edwin Hunt was a reserved man who spoke when he knew he had well-formed
thoughts to share. On that count, I don't believe he ever failed. I remember
only wisdom, and it was not infrequent.
I don't remember him ever saying
anything that was even slightly wrong.
