My thoughts and prayers be with your family. I worked at the hospital for many years when your mom was there and my husband worked your dad at H. Meyers for years, they were both such sweet people and good folks. The last time I seen them is when your dad and my husband were both in the hospital in 2006, your dad was very ill as was my husband (who passed away 9/07) and your mom was right there with your dad..God Bless all of you.
