Dear Cookie, Joe, Candy, Stacy Gary Lori and haley, My heart is broken for you all. For me too and his co workers and little kids on his bus that he loved so much! I gave him a hug before I left PA and I´m so grateful to have been able to see him one last time. He stopped in to drop off his waiver. He and John were funny together driving buses ... such fond memories I have of both of them! Love to you all, Sara
