Mrs. nightingale, Kim, Rick, I am so sorry to hear of Rhonda's passing! I am thinking of you all at this difficult time. I never had a sister but if I did I would want one just like you, I will never forget the late night rides home from you from the garage and the fun we always had at the cottage your smile was one of the best a person could see! Many late nights and full weekends I shared with you and the gang are some of my BEST childhood memories. We will all miss you!
