    Dear Dwight, you might remember me, I spent many informative evenings with you & your family at Para Hills, Sth Australia along with my then wife Carol. We had not long returned from Missionary service with the United Church in the Northern Territory. Herman Alexander was another I recall from the Para Hills Church of Christ. I think you were both present when you baptised us in a swimming pool belonging to a Church member.
    After divorce and many years in the wilderness I am in contact with the Church of Christ at Para Hills and doing Bible Studies by correspondence. I have thought of you often with fondness and hope you reply to my email.
    Yours, Paul Wells.

    Hello!,

    my name is Tiffany Rose, and I am a senior at Lake Highlands High School, and take newspaper with your nephew Paul Davis Whitsett. He mentioned you in a conversation that we had recently, and I was curisous about your ministry. Please feel free to email me at Tiff_ani@msn.com, and also I think it would mean a lot to Paul Davis if you were to give him a call or send him an email. Thank you for your time, and response.

    Sincerly, Tiffany Rose
