Randy, Joe, Jesse, and Annie, I can't express my sorrow at the loss of your wife/ Mom. I loved Jane dearly. She was such a good friend to me for the past 43 years. I was so fortunate to have gotten to spend hours upon hours over those years with her, of course, mostly playing tennis. She was a tremendous tennis partner, so many tournaments we played in. In the photo, of course, you wife/ Mom, Larry Nugent on left, and myself on right in 2010, at a tennis benefit for another good friend Buddy Bothwell. For well over 20 years, Jane, Larry, and I played 3-4 times a week at the Fairground tennis club, and at City Park. And before that, when you all still lived in Canon City, she and I played countless times with her so many friends.
