Bill and girls, Eileen just told me today about Marlenes passing. Sorry to hear. Bob passed away suddenly in Jan 2010 while we were on vacation in Cancun. I know that this is a very difficult time for you, but eventually the happy memories will overshadow the grief and bring you close to Marlene in a new and awsome way.
