To the Roll family; As a kid, Carol Manuel, I remember hanging out with you all at MVGC. Those colours and stories and fashions are as fresh as ever. Moms and Dads dropped us off at the pool, Dads played golf on certain days, Moms played bridge...or golf later in the afternoons. Funny how I can remember 50 years ago crystal clear with no memory of dinner two days ago.
Those fond memories of that are what defined lifestyles for many of us or at least kept those good times, of the pool and sunburns and the snack shack with too much sugar every day, in the back of our minds.
Now, as an adult, my husband and I live in 5Oaks and go by your old house and those old memories come flooding back frequently. I am dreadfully sorry for the vacant feel in your hearts Dick will leave. Hopefully, his transtition was easy for him. The loss is never easy for the family.
Dick, we'll catch up with you for music soon.
Peace and Love Friends.
