Michael I was very sorry to hear about your Mom. Your Dad and my dad were good friends until my Dad passed in 1982. My Mom thought the world of your Mom. She was heartbroken to hear about her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Michael, you were always such a nice guy, and I know you made your parents proud. Just know that God is with you and your family. May He bring you all peace and comfort.
