Oh no , Harriett , Judith my heart broke for you two when I saw this . As all the years have passed I have thought about the Wilson Family At one time we were as close as family . I can’t put this in words have I feel for you , I lost my son 3 years ago so I can understand . Don was a great kid just like his dad that was a caring and loving soul , and would do anything he could for someone
May you and Judith find peace with in
This is probably the hardest thing you will ever go through . I still love you two and if I saw you I am sure we could pick up right where we left off
Thinking about you
