Denny and family,
My most vivid memory of your mother is the afternoon of the rehearsal dinner. I recall how she worked tirelessly in the kitchen and with the best of spirits. While I can't recall exactly what she served that evening, I remember being impressed with the results. Larry and I are so sorry for your loss yet happy she lived a long life with a family who cared for her deeply.
