Garry, not sure if this is the Wilbur you’re looking for. From Meriden Journal 4/17/26 article. I can send the clipping.

I talk to Louis quite often. I'm sure he would love to talk to you. If I can help, just ask.

Just mailed another letter to you today.

Thanks so much, Chuck. With Brian Dudley's help I was able to speak with Louis this afternoon. We plan to share information on our research regarding Wilbur, Sr. I really enjoyed talking with him.

Speaking with Louis, your email, and the responses I've gotten so far remind me of how grateful I am for the work of so many in both publishing The Parker Story, and in the creation and maintenance of the PGCA.

My thanks to all.

P.S I'm looking forward to the letter. I value every one as a link to past. Thanks for your diligence and good work.

Thank you, Garth. I believe Rick may be right, and that this is Wilbur, Jr. But please do send it along to me if you would. My email address is: g.g2@aol.com
