Mary Linda, you are leaving a gap in our family too soon. We understand that you’ve had a lot of health struggles in recent times so we’re glad you don’t have to deal with them now, but we weren’t prepared for you to be taken by Covid. We’re here for Rex whenever he needs us and perhaps that’ll give you some sense of peace. Much love, Bobbie and Clay
