Default George Close Candy E94.......

Recently I received a very nice email from someone surfing the net for their grandfather's name (obviously). They happened to pick up on a letter I have concerning the George Close Candy letter I have in my collection. The gentleman sent along this message...It does give a personal touch to our collecting...

"Leon--
I happened across your collection of memorabilia and to my amazement I found you had a letter signed by my grandfather George Herbert Bunton of the George Close Company. I have scanned a memorial notice for the man and have attached it to this email...just something to add the human side to an otherwise unknown name. Sadly, he passed away before I was born."

He sent along this memorial notice, at very bottom, too.....



and here is the letter that instigated the email....(shown before but relevent for this thread)
