Ma, Joanie and all,
Too many memories to list however my favorite was the day Pa took me to work with him..He was so patient with me and I can still hear his laugh when I finished my building project. He will be missed but he is in good company and I am sure is telling the angels not to pick the wet beans...
Love and prayers,
Bobbi, Rick, Jeremy, Davita, Kyle and Carissa France
