I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. You posted a message on the Crescent Lake Facebook page looking to contact me. Our dad, Al Herman passed away on May 1st. I left a message on your mother's voicemail not knowing that she had passed. I thought it was unusual that she didn't return my call. I now know why. I am so sorry for your loss. I loved listening to the stories that your mom told us about my father and your mother. Your dad was so good to both of my parents as well.

Even though it's been a few months, Robin, Gail and I are sending you our heartfelt sympathy.
Here is my information if you ever have the need.
