Although we are all living in distant places, our hearts are still in Springfield. Boots could light up a room like nobody I know and Darrell never complained. I wish I could hear the conversation He and Aunt Joe are having... (yeah...)

Greek, Missy and David:

We grew up in the Southend together as a family back in the day, and I still feel the same way. The last time that I saw your brother, he looked good. I don't think that I'm going to be able to make the services, but just wanted to let you know I will be with you in spirit.
