Thank you for adding the beautiful pictures, Jennifer. I enjoyed having Steve and Debra on my mail route for over 30 years. Steve wanted to stay on the farm as long as he possibly could. They were very proud of their family (I got to see them enjoying their grand daughter a few times when they were watching her) and were also true lovers of their pets. Thinking of you all, Ronita Dewey (Roni) & family
