Bert, Tammy and family,
Diane and I send our condolences on the passing of your mother. Though you moved from Woods Cross when I was just a kid, fun memories still linger of your family. Your Dad and Joe Jarvis coached our baseball team the only year I ever played and I was grateful for the ice cream after the games. Bert tried to help me learn to hit and I still remember Tammy from our Sunday School Class. Hatch reminded me often that we were related back through our grandparents so we always had good memories whenever your family was mentioned. Our best to you,
Rob & Diane Ellis
