Dear Oleta,
I only had the honor of meeting Doc once – at his 80th birthdaty party, as a guest of Bill Gibson. I’m so glad I got to meet such a remarkable man!
My sincerest sympathies are with you, Oleta. I know how hard it will be for you – I have been walking those steps myself. I will keep you in my prayers.

I’ve never met Doc but have talked with him on occasion concerning various telephone equipment in the Museum as we have the H.R. Brunner Telephone Pioneer Museum in Corpus Christi, Tx. He was truly a Pioneer of the Telephone Industry!! I am sad to hear that he passed away and wanted to let you know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time. From a fellow Telephone Pioneer,
Judy Jaksik
