Sue,
So sorry to hear about this tonight. As you know I knew both your Mom and Dad and liked them both. I can remember when I last saw your Mom but I am confident it was the last time I was in Charleston, maybe 14 years ago. My condolences to you and your family. May your sorrow subside and leave you with only good memories.

Bob and Janine and their daughters were neighbors of mine when growing up. It´s very sad to hear of her passing. I can still remember her bubbly laugh. Thoughts and prayers to her family.

Janine absolutely loved playing golf with the guys from AAI/ESI every week. We all have great memories of her on the links. May God rest her soul and give the family strength. She and Bob are finally together and smiling down on us.
