Many prayers are with you all! It's a funny thing I was thinking about Mrs. Chambers and was going to call her. I missed her at the Cancer walk in October. I will always remember her and miss Karin every day too. I'll alway remember the fun times we had at the house when we were teenagers... With Deepest Sympathy and Love to all
