Danny and the rest of the Keesling Family. I was shocked to hear about the passing of your Mom. I remember contacting you when your Dad passed. I never got to meet the woman, but seeing how you turned out lets me know that both of your parents were Loving, and only wanted the Best for their children. I am sorry I missed the service, but I was called at 10:30 PM the night before and had a Dentist appt. I had been waiting since right after Christmas, that I could not break. May your Mom Rest in Peace, and now she is with your Dad. Danny, if you need anything, do not hesitate to call.
