My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Your family was so much a part of my high school years while in Sherborn. Even though I don't get back to Sherborn often, when I do, I can't help but think of all the time I spent at your house each time I drive by! Your dad was always so nice to Kim and me. He will be missed greatly.
