I just wanted to let Teresa know that I remember how sweet Keith and you both were to our parents (John & Dorothy Hoffman) and to my late sister Marykay Hoffman. We will be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers and know that Keith is in a better place with no pain. Huggs from all of us Hoffman's!
