John, Teresa, Sandy, Gary & Charlie, We are so sorry for your loss! We used to love getting together with your family when we were young & Daddy used to get such a kick out of trying to beat your Mom to calling her on Christmas Eve. He looked so forward to those early morning calls with her. Please give your Dad our love & sympathy, too. Our prayers will be with you during this difficult time. Barbara (Wise) Vanderveer
