I knew you through your wondrous daughter Bonnie. I see her in your eyes, smile, heart and humor. Bonnie is one of the most amazing/loving women I know. I look forward to seeing more of you as I spend time and grow with her.

Love, Bob and Laura

Laura was Salutatorian of her class at Mount Mary. But that didn't stop us from hamming it up for the camera.
