Of all the countless, great people I've had the privilege of knowing in my long and blessed life, I've not met a more perfect couple than Dut and Sno. What an example of love and devotion. Although it has been many years, I've thought of y'all often, Sno. My prayers are with you, Blaine and the rest of the family. May the Good Lord bless ank keep you all.
