We had a great vacation in Nov. with Mike & Trich. We got to meet Mike for the first time (our brother-in-law). He was so nice and very pleasant. He loved dancing to the music & we know he is dancing with the angels right now! Trich we love you and God is with you! You're in our thoughts and prayers! Love, Jesse & Jean (love ya Sis!)
