Well Christmas is right around the corner. I got through the rest of 2018 now just 1 more hurdle and then Bring in the New Year of 2019! We both have the Christmas envelope u gave each of us and we still have Bobby's winning ticket. We always will have those envelopes and that winning ticket. We all thought you had a idea you were celebrating your last Christmas. You got to meet your Grandson and spend enough time with him to have made an impression. Your unforgettable to so many people. I still run into people that don't know your home with Ted & Mary Jane....waiting for all your loved ones and DEFINATLEY guiding us. You'll ALWAYS light our way. I live and miss you Dad.
