I remember dog sitting for Sean and Marsha and had a little accident with the glass of the oven door and doggies having fun...I worried so much about getting it fixed before you all got home. Once it was fixed and the story was told Sean laughed and told me I silly to worrying about it. My deepest sympathies to Marsha and the girls.

Though we only got to be around a few times Sean seemed to be an extremely friendly person. Marcia, you would have never had to say his praise nor he yours, all a person had to do is observe you all together. I can't even began to imagine. Deepest condolences!
