Rick and the family always enjoyed spending time at Lucille and Bill's place and Christmas parties. She always made sure we enjoyed ourselves. One year after the 4th of July they came buy our house on their way to Branson to bring the kids fishing poles the kids had, they weren't our kids but insisted we keep them the boys enjoyed fishing. Love you all
