Goodbye my dear friend of 50 years. Until we meet again and give my love to my Gary. I will miss my Sunday weekly messages from you. my condolences and friendship to your dad, Trevor and Brett and families.
My fun memory to share with the family is that your boys always wanted to keep my girls when they were babies because they want sisters. And many weekend nights of going to the races in Knoxville or playing cards in your kitchen! You are all cherished.
