Good to meet you, Elmer

Kokomo Tribune; Kokomo, Indiana - Elmer Herman Oaks Sr.

There is no easy way to break this too you.....but I like reading the obits. Just the people who die when they are up there in age. I think older folks are a source of knowledge you can't find in a book. I found this obit today and I thought this would be a man I would like to know, he could have been a rotten old coot but for my purposes he is just someone I would have loved to sit down and talk to. It seems like he lived a very hard working, interesting life. Older people usually have the best names too, names that have just gone out of style. Check this guy out! imagine the stories he could tell.
