Craig Lindholm also morns the passing of Cynthia Powers, and I send a warm note of concern and love to Stuart and family. The loss of your Mom will be great! I share in the great warm memories of the past times at St Marks. I will always remember and cherish the memories and fun we had. I will not be able to attend – I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
