Kerry, I know I didn't get to grow up with you, we did not live in Little Rock. A Big loss for me. Your mom & I have been keeping up with each other for years. As you already know, your mom is one in a million. The most kind person I know. She always talked about her baby and how special you are. That you love to fish. You are an AWESOME person! There are several of us that keep a close eye on your mama. We all love her dearly. She is going to miss you so very much. She loved you with ALL of her heart plus a whole lot more. Sue is a very special person also. I really didn't know her very well. But if she was your wife, she was special! And I got to meet Kara for the first time yesterday. She is beautiful. Your mom also bragged about her granddaughter. Every Grandma has every right to brag. I wish your mom could see Kara more. But I know she doesn't live here. RIP.
May knowing you're in the hearts and thoughts of others help you and yours through this time of sorrow. I will always have fond memories of our childhood together. I wish I could be there in person during this trying time.
Sending warmest condolences from Monterey, CA.
