I was going through my cabinets and found a chocolate sauce that was the party favor at your wedding, Mike and Roylene. I decided to look you up and found this. I am heart broken. Mike was my best friend in college and we travelled through Europe together. I hope the family reads this and recalls me. I am Kelly Malia Stanford in San Francisco, and would be grateful to visit a burial site if there is one. My love to you all and everything you did for us as kids. God bless, Kelly Stanford
