I wonder how much money he took with him.

Best wishes to his survivors.

Memo to Sam W:

Our "Always the lowest price" mantra probably shouldn't be carried over to airplanes.

Be seeing you soon.

I thought the Walmart fortune was split four ways, remember the book I read on Wal Mart.

Not this John (boy)Walton!

I hope he had his will in order so his family doesn't fight over his inheritance.
