Not sure what to say?

tried to find pictures of Father and me and this was from a November 2014 visit - I cant believe it was that long ago - It was hard to get from Texas to South Carolina

My father Gilbert Reynolds spoke of him often while he was alive. I did get to see Father again a couple years after dad passed and sadly was not able to make it out again before Father passed away. Rest in peace

On behalf of the Flickinger family I wish the entire Gustin Marinak family our regards. 1936 my late mother and later as a St James family Fr and family remained friends.
