We were so sad to hear about your mom, but what a party they must be having in heaven now (as long as your mom hasn't locked the liquor cabinet!) Taking care of your family continues to be one of the highlights of our careers. Although several of our co-workers never met you, they all know about Bob and Kay and all of our stories! You were blessed with amazing parents, may your memories comfort you.
Love,
Terrie and Becky
