Monty,I am so sorry for your loss - I do know what it is like - been there, done that. It is extremely hard at first but It does get a bit easier with time. The pain doesn't go away but it mostly gets a little duller with time. John

We were so sorry to hear about the passing of Martha. She was such a sweet lady and always had a smile on her face. We did not get to see her often enough but always enjoyed being in her company. We will always remember the fun times we had on our boats and other club events. Monty let us know if there is anything we can do for you. Our prayers are with you and your family.
