D& D and Paul & I enjoyed the beginning of our empty nest years together. Paul and I loved all of their stories of having their son, nieces & nephews in their life in the kids early years. So many family stories and both families joined each other often ! I never got a total count of how many cherished ones were in their life. God Bless Donald and may Dolores begin recalling and cherish so many heartwarming memories. Megan ( Paul) Tourlis
