It's been 27 years since you went home to Heaven. Thinking of you again, and missing you. I played Dan Fogelberg and Olivia Newton-John songs in your honor. As any Boy Scout would understand: "You left this campsite in much better condition than you found it in". I miss you greatly, think of you often, talk to you occasionally, and will see you again sooner than later.
Please give my son Mattie a hug, and help him when he needs it.
You are such a good soul. Love you & miss you. Thoughts and prayers for your Mom and sister Darah.
God Bless,
Greg
