Dana/Billy/Debra-
We are so sorry to hear of your tragic loss. Our prayers go out to you all at this time.
Dana-no matter how hard it gets-always remember the great times you had together with your Dad. That's what I do. My father has been gone for 9 years and I still think-what would Ray do in this situation when I am at a loss. It helps give me focus and clarity. My father was a great guy as I sure yours was too.
