First of all..to my Mother, the most wonderful, amazing woman that I have ever known...You are so deeply loved and respected, and will never be far from any and every thought I have.
Second to my Father..I'm sure that you are basking in the glory of having mom with you...I know that she has missed you every day for the last 20 years and must be in "heaven" to be at your side again, forever!
Third, to my brothers & sisters, we always have been and always will be a great family, loved by one another.
Fourth, to my husband and all my children, I love each and every one of you like no other! If not for you, I'm not sure how I would make it through this life!
Finally, to everyone else...On behalf of all of May & Bill's children, I would like to say Thank you. For all the cards, letters, well wishes, thoughts & prayers that everyone has expressed to us. It is these things, along with the love of each other and our families, that give us the strength and courage to go on. So Thank you one and all.

To Bill and all:
Losing your Mom will be saddening for you all, just as losing your Dad was saddening for her. We all had some great laughs at the SCCA events "back when", and I always had the utmost respect and admiration for both Bill and May. They are together, forever, right where they belong and can watch over you all from above. God bless you all and take comfort in knowing your Mom and Dad are closer to you now than you realize.... they live on.. and always will...through you, your children and grandchildren. My condolences to you all.
