My Uncle Ray introduced me to Cheech and Chong. Seriously. He was much more hip than the other adults I knew and always treated me with love and respect. I'll never forget what great times we had when visiting. Carole, Stephen and Jeffrey, although the distance is great, my thoughts are right there with you.
