Although, I had not called recently, I will always cherish those phone calls we did have. I will always remember your laughter. I have come across a couple of photos of which I could share but being that one day I may be with you once again, I'll save myself from a scolding. We will miss you, until we meet again.
Love,
Mike, Kathy, & Family
