I have known all of you for many years. I baby sat Dennis and Dena when they were little. (I think all the McQueen girls did.) Willis, Dennis and Dena, my thoughts and prayers are with you. May God comfort you during this difficult time. Willis, I always thought a lot of you and Charlene. Just know you will be reunited again one day.
