Dear Chris, Audrey and family -- I am so sorry about your dad's passing. I was thinking about him quite a bit the week he died. As you know, your mom and I were best buddies during our childhood/teenage years and kept in touch beyond that. We were blessed to visit her about a week before she died. Your dad was really a help to her, even though he had his own health problems. I hope they are together now, laughing as usual, and at peace. They were both fantastic, good people. Wishing you peace in knowing the great love they had for you and for each other. Sincerely, Linda

Chris and family...I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I worked with Mike in radio back in 1978 and he was the best. We called each other "fuzzball" and had a great time. I worked from 5:00 pm to midnight and Mike did the overnight shift. Great guy...I can't say enough about him. I tried to look for him over the last 10 years or so, but couldn't locate him and now I see why...he was out in the mid-west. Mike and his wife came to our wedding back in 1984 and to this day I remember their smiles...they had such a good time. Again, what a great guy and a great friend. "Peace be with you fuzzball."

Chris, I was so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Hopefully, all the good memories of your parents will get you through these difficult times. They were both very special people.

I remember when he and your mom were married. Your mom was still working in Hartford, at the time, at Travelers Insurance. We were in the same department; and when she moved to Georgia, I chose Dallas.
