Memories of Willard Lamb
From Jim Metcalfe (’52):  Kingman, AZ
  
My heartfelt condolences to the family, relatives and friends of Willard Lamb.
He was in my grade at Hilltop school back in the forties and we graduated together.  He was a really a good friend and we used to visit back and forth spending a day on each others family farms.  Willard (we never used any nickname) 
was a little quieter and less inclined to partying than the rest of our classmates but he still enjoyed visiting and recalling our escapades at ol’ Hilltop.  The last time I saw Willard was at the Dunseith Centennial way back when.  I was shocked and saddened to hear of his passing. I am poorer by one less good friend.

Joke of the day

An older gentleman was on the operating table

awaiting surgery and he insisted that his son,

a renowned surgeon, perform the operation.

As he was about to get the anesthesia,

he asked to speak to his son.

“Yes, Dad, what is it?”

“Don’t be nervous, son; do your best,

and just remember, if it doesn’t go well,

if something happens to me, your mother

is going to come and live with you and your wife….”
