I'm so glad to see you remembering your son Adam after many years. When I first moved back to Roanoke after my son Chip was killed, I was in the support group with you. We met at the Mansion on Jefferson St. and I would go to dinner with you and the Butlers for dinner and Mac and Maggies. I still think of and miss my son every day, too. I hope that you and your family are doing well. I remember that you had a daughter and another son. I hope you have grandchildren, too. I never was able to have that.
