It has been 15 years since we all enjoyed the Florida life style. The sun, the beaches, the TGIF gatherings every night at 4:00, the shows at the Rec hall, the holiday dinners, swapping stories with friends from all over the States and Canada. We were lucky to have been there and done that, and we enjoyed doing it with the "Three Guys and a Bird".

Alice, Vance & family:
We offer our condolences on the passing of your brother, Pete. He was a great guy. We got to know him well during his travels with Tim and my brother, Bob. He got to tour a lot of places I have yet to see and he was always a willing participant. We enjoyed many outings and holiday dinners with Pete, and we will surely miss him this Thursday, on Thanksgiving. May he rest in peace.
