Sincere sympathy Sue to you,and your family.



We saw you guys last time at Oak Lawn a couple of years ago (Now & Then Band) and where going to always get together; and time moved on.

I worked with BJ at Dry Storage and we became friends at that time and as with all people, you kind of get caught up with work, etc and things don't happen.



I wish you the best and am truely sorry for the loss of your "best friend". God bless you and your family.
