One reason for this letter is to pay my respects and tribute to a man that I consider my friend. I know that a lot of you feel the same way. This man has spent over 30 years in the forest products business, serving his company and his customers well.

Tribute To A Friend

Time changes many things. All of us in Texas and surrounding states have seen this in the past few years. (llose to home, in the North Texas area, many changes have affected the way we live, play and work.

Time has erased the "Cireat Tom Landry" from leading the once proud I)allas Clowboys. Time has changed our leaders, lives and work. Time is a mighty force that can't be stopped, but one thing all of us can count on is friends. Handled and nourished properly, good friends will be with us until the end.

Sometimes stubborn, sometimes comical, sometimes firm and sometimes arrogant, but, if you dealt fair with him, he was always more than fair in return. The end of March 1989 brought to a close this man's era in the forest product business. His retirement is well deserved.

This man is Jessie Brown, who has retired after being with The Pacific Lumber Co. for over 30 years. Let's all wish him the best in the luture and sav thanks lor a job well done.
