You treated all of us as your family and we will cherish the wonderful fond memories. The kids developed a love for card games due to your fun-loving spirit and patience in teaching.
The time we spent together at the Bette Midler concert in Sept 1993 will always be one of the best times of my life.
We miss you already. Thanks for your generosity and love.
Cindy, Meghan, Erin and Ryan Walsh
