I've missed seeing your Mom over the past couple of years. She used to stop and visit when she was up here and I always enjoyed her company. We would just visit for a while and sometimes go for a walk to the river. She'll be missed and remembered fondly. Best regards to you and your family. Shaaron & John Renart
