To Bruce,George,Mark & Ken & families, so many great memories of my time with you guys in Granger. Your Mom openned your home to me, at a time when I realy had no place to stay. I fondly remember her smile, her endless positive energy & her ability to keep her 5 men on track. In 1997 we visited your folks in Fla. with, at the time our 2 young children. It was so awesome to see your parents beaming with joy. I will never forget that visit. I am sending along with this message my heartfelt wishes for the 4 of you to take tremendous comfort in having a mother who may now be gone but forever in your hearts. I am honoured to have known her & experienced her warm & open heart. Forever a friend to the Bachman's.....Neil Shepherd
