I sent him a towel, embroidered with ""HH 42 GG", via Greyhound Parcel Post. He opened it in the bus station, and promptly went into an uncontrollable laughing fit. Even when he explained it to onlookers, they still didn't get it. Last fall, he took the towel with him to Europe and to Newfoundland. RIP Mr. Adams Last summer, a friend went on an extended trip to Vancouver. I sent him a towel, embroidered with “”HH 42 GG”, via Greyhound Parcel Post.

He opened it in the bus station, and promptly went into an uncontrollable laughing fit. Even when he explained it to onlookers, they still didn’t get it.

Last fall, he took the towel with him to Europe and to Newfoundland.

RIP Mr. Adams

I hope he will in turn impress upon my grandson the importance of the towel. I'm sure he will!
