It is difficult to be so far away at this time. Your Mom was very special to me. Keith is her Godson and she and your Dad stood up to Mike and my wedding in 1965. We have been friends a long time. God bless all of you. I hope good memories will be there for you. Just touch your shoulder. She is there.
