Rick, Rob and families,
I was sad to hear of your mom's passing. For that chunk of time, when we were in our early teens, you-all are a fixture in my memory, along with your mom's energy, determination, and cordial graciousness.
I know no words can calm your grief, but please accept my simple, heartfelt condolences for your dad and you.
So sorry, Connie
