It seems like just yesterday when Steve, Sheryl, Denise....would show up with burgers from the pad - and we'd just laugh and laugh. Little did I know then that I had met the couple that would remain steady in my life for 40 years. Sheryl became my best friend. She baby sat my baby Julie, later Julie would babysit Aubrey and Greg. I was there when Steve and Sheryl married; I was spending time with Steve building jigsaw puzzles as his Alzheimer's progressed. Full circle; from cradle to the grave. And Sher? You know Steve and your mom are watching over you. Shaking their heads in amusement, but watching none the less. I could write a lifetime of memories...♥♥

Sheryl & family,
I am so very sorry, however, I know you are rejoicing in the fact that he is 'whole' again and free of illness. I wish you and your family peace and comfort during this difficult time. Hoping memories are a ray of sunshine during gloomy days. Love you all...take care of each other.
