So glad I visited you a few weeks ago. The Conley and Laake families were so close. You always seemed so cool with your rock music! You were a great dad and husband!

You are all in my prayers. This is a rough chemo week, so I'm not sure I will get out of the house. All of the Gary Laake family have been kind, and I'm glad to call you cousins.
