Betty, Bill and Judy, We are so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Your family was so special to us and are always in our hearts. I can hear your dads laugh as I sit here now and the many memories when we lived on your farm on the Lochend Road when Dad and your Dad formed a partnership. Maybe they are both up there chatting about the dairy business now. Hugs to you all and our thoughts an prayers are with you at this difficult time.
