Michael,
I am very sorry for your loss. I worked with your mother at Clark Foundation Co. She was a great lady to work with and brought joy to many of the guys at Clark. It was obvious by the storys that she shared, that YOU meant the world to her. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Michael: I was so sorry to heard from Amanda and Justin about your mom. She was such a huge part of our lives when we were neighbors- she watched my kids and we watched you- we were like one big family on many occasions. I remember her ambling over to our driveway with a kitchen towel slung over her shoulder after dinner to chat for awhile. Almost every day. She will always be an important part of our lives. Kim Cory
