My condolences to you and your family on the passing of Mr.Ault, I have fond memories of Mr. Ault coming into the Wachovia Bank at Manor Street and talking about the Eagles and the Phillies I always an enjoyed my conversations with him especially after the Eagles lost but Mr Ault was filled with joy and excitement over his great grand Kevin on how good he was in sports and one day he would be playing on Sundays as well.It’s a sad day to lose someone as caring and full of life as Mr Ault.
May God Bless you in this trying time,
Christopher A. Henderson

Mrs. Ault,
I was the nurse who took care of your husband when he came back into the hospital Friday night and had to have a chest tube placed. I had taken care of him when he was hospitalized in Oct/Nov. I remembered his beautiful kind brown eyes and dispite the fact that he was so short of breath, he said " I remember you" and winked at me as I held his had for the procedure. He was a wonderful kind man and I am sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you
