Aunt Barb, Linda and Danny, Our loss is so great mere words cannot express how deep my emotions are, and I know from experince yours are ten fold. I am so deeply sorry for the loss you feel. My Uncle Hick was definately one of a kind, he wore his heart on his sleeve, when I think back on my childhood there are not many memories without him in them. In my opinion he was the best of the Best. Even though I am almost 60, when I saw him last year he still called my "Buggen" I love you all so much. Annie
