So soryy for your loss. I loved your mother very much. She was so very kind to me, as well as your dad. (Not to mention what wonderful friends they were to my mom and dad). I am hoping Tom and Mary are having fun in heaven with Ken and Phyll.

It's a terrible loss no matter what your age to loose both your parents. You are in my prayers. Love, Bonnie Moebius Brown
