Kathy, my dearest friend, and Family, You have my deepest sympathy of the passing of your dad, "Pop". He was such a caring and loving person. After talking to him you always left with a smile on your face. He was very "special" to me. You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this time of your loss of "Pop". Kathy, you and Jim took such wonderful care of him, Nanny would of been so proud of her two kids! God will be with you both through this walk, just put your hand out and he will walk with you and comfort you. "Ruby" Sue
