We are so blessed to have known Pete & Ruth. I still remember seeing them around Sycamore and how happy they were. Thank you so much for stopping by to see us last time you were in town. I think of your Dad every day when I see the angel he sent to me. He was always so thoughtful and will be missed by all who knew him. I was so glad to be one of Pete's "girls" along with Mary Ann. Hugs to all of you until we meet again. Your Dad & Mom are watching over all of you.
Love,
