Oh Chuck and Dori, Judy saw you last week and all was well. I loved working with Chuck at Allan Nott. Stories of being an airline mechanic, and stories of your granddaughters . You were always so happy and full of happiness and you passed it on. I wanted to visit but never did; I'm sorry. But I am sure you are in Glory and I hope to see you there. Blessings Dori.
