Missing you Grandma... sure wish you were here to taste my chili and shop at my favorite GW with me. You’d be so proud of Natalee and Zach. Hope you and Grandpa are dancing the days away until we meet again. We don’t realize how precious the times are until they are only memories. I don’t care what anyone says, you left way too soon.

I am very sorry to hear of Dixie's passing. She was a pioneer for the rest of us that love motorcycling. *Joes* was the place I went with my girlfriend in 1971 when I moved here. I met many nice and welcoming people there. Joe and Dixie were a very colorful couple.
