Dear Vicki,
I remember Mike rumbling into the driveway of the duplex you and Mike with Chris lived in on 23rd ave south. That blue Dodge Charger was the coolest thing to an 8 year old kid. I remember how you guys treated us neighborhood kids like we we were best friends. It looks as though you and Mike had a beautiful life together and hope you will continue on with cherished memories of a life well spent. I look at you as a couple I will never forget that really enjoyed each other's company even though it was 42 years ago. God Bless.
