W. Gayle Martin, Jr.

What an achievement, congratulations on your 60th birthday! I think my earliest memories are of Stephen, Doug, and I running around your house in our dish towel "capes" pretending we were super heroes. Your patience with us jumping from the sofas (so we could fly) and running down the hall (to catch the bad guys) always made your house a fun place to play. Your wonderful smile and cheerful laugh was always inviting and warm, even when we might not have deserved it. As a young boy growing up I always felt like I had two homes, one with my Moody family and the other with the Zedler's. Thank you so much for all the football games in your front yard, for the driveway space you so willingly gave up so we had room to do our bike tricks, for the countless hours you let us spend playing ColecoVision, and most of all, the love and care you showed everyone that you so graciously shared your home with. Mrs. Zedler there aren't enough adjectives to describe how wonderful you are and how nice it is to know you, so I will just end with a simple "THANK YOU!"
