Connie and family, I'm so very sorry that Bill and I were out of town Thursday through Saturday noon. Would love to have been there to give/get a big hug. You know how much I loved you both. Memories ran rampant as I thought back through the years. I'll check on Curly's grave as I always do your boys since my parents and more relatives are buried near them at Forest Hills. My thoughts and prayers were with you last night and this morning and I'll continue prayers for all of you. It was so good to see you both recently at church. Love you.

I fondly remember George from the days of MADD. He was always there fighting the good fight. I got to know him because we worked together so to speak in getting legislation passed and other types of events. It was always a joy to be around him. My prayers for you all.

I loved the pecan crisps that your Dad made when we visited in January. it was beautiful to sew how he feigned being able to form them into balls and how Connie came to his rescue and they were an incredible success working together. What an amazing love story and example to us all!! Our most heartfelt feelings and prayers go to you and your family. Larry & Teresa Heil
