Jenni, Spags won't be the same. I honestly don't think I can walk in there anymore knowing that your not there. Hearing your voice & then seeing you smile with that thick mane of yours is irreplaceable. I'm glad we got to you talk that last day before you left us.You boasted about your kid's and gave some good advise about mine. Thank You for being such a wonderful listener & wonderful person.
May God bless you & your family...
