Michael, Janet, Sherri and Nancy
I was heartbroken when I learned of your dads passing. He was truly a special person. Both of your parents always held a special place in my heart. Although I am not there with you my thoughts are. I was shocked when I read the obituary as I was unaware of the loss of Patrick. I am so sorry.
