Cheri, Jeff and Mindy,
My heart was so saddened last night when Dave called to let me know of your mom's passing. I have such fond memories of all the fun activities our families did together when we were growing up: La Jolla vacations, Payson camping trips, Sunday picnics, hiking, backyard holiday get-togethers, just to name a few! We always had fun, fellowship and lots of laughter! Time has moved on much too quickly, and I miss seeing all of you! I'm sure your Dad and my folks were waiting at Heaven's gate to welcome your Mom "home"; and I'm sure my Dad had a joke to tell her! I share your heartache; but am rejoicing that she is no longer suffering and in the arms of Jesus! Love to you all!
