Thinking of you, Irene. I lost my 23 year old brother in the Battle of the Bulge in 1944 during WWII and I still cry for him from time to time. So I know you miss yours....as well as all the sorrow you've been faced with these past years. I care.

I'm so sorry to hear this Irene. I remember Gibby from our car-pooling days. He had a great sense of humor. My thoughts are with you.
