To The McPherson Family: Robert and Adrian I remember your grandmother coming over to mommy's house to a cook-out and coming with your father to drop you off to just swim. It was so sad to hear of her passing. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. With Heartfelt Sympathy
