We have only known Jeff and Shirley a very short time and have come to enjoy their company very much. Our initial connection began a few years ago through riding our barleys together, but as time when on we came to get to know them better and we have enjoyed our newly found friendship. In this time of sorrow, we both hope they know how much they know our thoughts and prayers are with them. We want to offer our condolences to all of Jeff and Shirley's Family as well. , especially to Marv and Kelly who we have met personally.
