Lynda, Jerry, and family,
God bless you all and Lynda I am so glad that you and I got to talk in my past visit.
It is hard when both parents are gone but life is still precious. I got my gallbaldder surgery over and talk at you later.
I loved being your class mate and neighbor. Take care and live each day to the fullest.
