I did not know you but according to my dad we have a connection to the prim family. My father was born Donald William Prim named after his father who died when he was a young boy. His mother moved him to Florida and changed his name to Donald William Howard. I am trying to find out family history, the family he was raised up in was not his own. It would be great if someone who knows anything about this could reach out.

I was saddened to read about the loss of your mother, Rickey, Debbie and Marshall. I loved her laugh and her can do spirit. She was small, but mighty. Please accept my condolences. I was your babysitter in Burlington and then Queen City Park.
