   LETT James L., age 75, passed away Sun., Sept. 18, 1994. All who knew
   him will be saddened by his death, but can take comfort knowing his
   life was rich and full. Although he was born on Nov. 16, 1918 in
   Wapanucka, Ok., his family soon moved to Cache and made it their
   permanent home. Jim graduated from O.U. in 1943 with a degree in
   Pharmacy. He entered the Army shortly thereafter, served his country
   in WWII and was honorably discharged after the war. Upon return to the
   U.S., Jim and his wife, Poldi opened a pharmacy in Del City, while
   starting their family. He was a devoted husband and father. Jim took
   great pride in being a fair and honest man. He served the community
   for many years and leaves behind friends too numerous to mention. Jim
   was proud of his lifelong accomplishments. He was an avid golfer and
   sports booster. He was a charter and lifetime member of Kiwanis Club,
   as well as their past President. He was instrumental in development of
   the Pharmacy Heritage Museum in Guthrie. He was past President of
   OPHA. Jim stayed vibrant and active until the time of his death. He
   strived to live life to the fullest and make all those around him
   happy. His wish is to be remembered this way. His family and friends
   will miss him greatly and the void he leaves in their lives can never
   be filled. Those wishing to make donations may send them to the
   Oklahoma Pharmacy Heritage Foundation. Services will be 10:00 a.m. on
   Thurs., Sept. 22, 1994 in the chapel at Resthaven Funeral Home in OKC.
