Aker and his charming wife, Iona Wilkins Aker. Robert still thanks Miss Hoover for her careful training of Iona in Home Ec.

If you ever need gas go to Bill's Station.

Nunn is the director of one of the most famous Men's Glee Clubs in the World. We can all remember when Mr. Nunn was the leading barritone of D.U.H.S.
