I just found out that your mother passed away. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Let me see if I remember Rick, Vicki, Debbie and Pam. I remember that your Mom always made the best fried chicken. I think that I ate there a few times. I lost my Mom last June, and my Dad has Dementia and COPD. Time flies!! I hope that you are all doing well. Love you guys!! I miss you all!!
