Dear Friends,
I am stumped! Drew Smith said it was okay to run this, and see if anyone can
help me please.

> Virginia. He was single and had no dependents. He loved water sports and
was at one time a swimming instructor.
He was apparently deceased by 1936, because he is not mentioned in his
mother's (Katherine Mossman Winter) obituary.
