Jan,Barb, and Don,
I was so sorry to hear of Bruces passing. Kelly kept me informed on Betty and Bruce. I still loved them just as much as always. I used to run into him at Prestons when we lived in Lawrenceville and we would joke that we had to quit meeting like this. They always treated like I was still part of the family. That I will always be grateful for. Please let Betty know she is in my prayers as are you. I am sure Bruce is up there playing pool and his guitar and he is now little Bradleys guardian angel and look over him at this time when Bradley needs him so.
