Mike, Our condolences on the passing of your Mom. We’re so sorry she is gone, especially so soon after the passing of your Father. But they’re together once again. They seemed to be the perfect couple and outstanding parents. Will never forget first meeting your Mom, back when we all were in school at the ‘Ville. She could make some fine dandelion. She made us all feel so welcome in your home. Over thirty years ago, it a times seems like yesterday. May the Lord be with you and yours. Love, Paul and Doreen Smith
