Ronald,

I'm sorry Nicole & I weren't there that day to say goodbye to you. Not a day goes by that there isn't something that reminds her of you, chocolate, rivers, or just driving through Weston. We pray to you every night and I reassure her that you hear us, but your busy settling in to take care of the people you love & reunited with up in heaven. We both think about you every passing day. I'm glad we got the chance to meet you, were able to help you as much as we could, and got the chance to hear your limericks, and just to be by your side to talk...you always made us laugh. We will never forget you...God bless you Mr. Mansbridge.

Love Heather, Maria & Nicole
