Kevin, Andy and family. Please excuse the delay. So sorry to hear about your mother and father. Winnie was a kind intelligent woman that set a fine example for all of you. Always looked forward to seeing her. So many laughs with the cheese going all the way back to the Golden Dome days. A man's man
His wit and sense of humor we could all use more of these days. I think of Andy and Winnie often.
