My thoughts and prayers are with the family through your loss. I have so many wonderful memories of growing up around the family. The nights us kids made card houses while our parents were playing cards. Spending the night with Shelley, remember the time we locked ourselves in wash room out side house, almost blew ourselves up with firecrackers one time. Lots of memories. My love to the family.
