Margie and Terri, I'm so sorry about C.J. My thoughts and prayers are with you. He was such a kind and wonderful person and he will be greatly missed by so many people. I worked with Terri (when she was in autocad)at H.C. Eng. I was(Pat Smiley's) assistant (my name then was Y'barbo) and I worked with both you and CJ on many bids on the court agenda, and saw you quite a few times having lunch at HESS. Sadly, I lost touch with you and CJ over the years. I hope that some how you and your family, will be able to find peace during this great time of sorrow.
