So Sorry. Just don't think that we are getting old. Not the Dowdle's, Yarcho's and the Aue's. All the playing time we all had together, were still kids when we think of each other! We were kids when U left Lincoln. That's how U will stay and also your Mom's cake that we all fought over ! U all have my sympathy.
