Bob, Toni and Diane, I am so sorry to hear about my dear friends passing. Growing up everyone thought we were twins. I remember coming to your house and seeing your mom. She was a sweet heart. We would walk home every day. We´d stop at Washburns sometimes. She was a great friend to me. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
