I am so sorry to hear of this. I know that this is a monumental and sad event. Deb and I wish that you and Paula take a small amount of solace in the fact that you have an large amount of friends (enormous actually) that care for you both and will support you through this dark passage that is the down side of our travel through life. Enjoy the memories of your father. They will visit you often and become a comfort to you.

I'm so sorry to hear of Fritz's passing. My prayers go out to Karen and Gary. Uncle Fritz and Aunt Dorothy had a major hand in bringing me up when they were only in their very early 20's, when they were no more than kids themselves. I'll never forget him. He was my favorite uncle. Jim Nelson Jr.
