Judy -- my heart breaks for your loss. I know two people that met Archie in heaven with open arms. My parents thought the world of you. My dad loved Archie like a son. But those of us left here on earth will miss Archie. His goodness. His love of God, family, & friends. He was a very very special person.

My sympathy for your loss. Archie was a great guy. I first worked with Archie when he was my pilot, me his student, on the Trenton sub. He was a consumate professional. He forgot more about how to run a train than I will ever know! He''''s the only one I know that can tell your speed, by counting the numbers of clicks as you roll over jointed rail. God Bless
