To Don and Molly's Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. It was so nice seeing Molly again at the Bocce Club after not seeing her for some years, we go back to the sheriff's office where we worked together. We had some good laughs together, I always loved her dry sarcastic humor. God Bless!
