Cathy,
Some of my favorite childhood memories are of holidays at your house, Janie’s and going camping! Playing quarters, food galore, Grandma’s Red Velvet cake AND FIREWORKS- always fun-with a little bit of scary! Gary was always in his garage and he always had a sarcastic joke. I miss those days. Love you guys and pray you have peace and support surrounding You, Gary Wayne and Ronnie. ❤️
