Mr. And Mrs. Sheridan were always so good to me. They took me for my very first scoop of Baskin-Robbins ice cream (creating a monster... LOL), and the taquitos Dick would make in the deep-fryer we're always such a treat. So many fond memories of time I spent in the Sheraton household as a young person, because Dick and Colette were always so warm and welcoming to everyone.
My heart aches for your loss. God bless him.
