Hey Mike, I´m not sure what to say. I still hold on to the memories, while at the same time, I can accept the fact that it´s all for the best. The last five years or so have taught us what really matters in life, but looking back I can see that you knew the importance of family.

Gosh we go a long way back. From high school to softball days, Don and I getting married ,he and nancey getting married,babies being born,losing parents,IHOP dinners , pool days and " the big d" with Isabella. He loved his kids and was fiercely protective of them- ( often putting up a grumpy, gruff cover to hide that fact) . He and Nancey were a team and the big guy is gonna be missed- gone way too soon.Peace and prayers , Don and Barbara
