Clyde worked out of South Hammond for a long time and wound up retiring from CSX. There is a picture of him among the Eldridge photos.

I have mailed a card to Clyde's surviving widow.   I also put a message of sympathy on the funeral home web site.

BTW Thanks to KWeller for helping me determine the difference between Clyde G and Clyde S.

Tom --

Just a thought but maybe Mrs Coble would like to have a copy of that photo.

Ron may have a larger scan, which would make a better print. If not, I think may Kevin Heggi may have it.

Here's the other photo I have with Mr. Coble in it. I may have posted this one before, maybe on the other board?
