We are saddened hearing about Jerry. He was a great guy. I know years have passed since we left the area but we think of all the folks that made Marion feel like home to us. Your family was one of those.
We have been fighting our own battle this summer with keeping Kippy alive, he got very sick Easter Sunday and has been in the hospital since May 6th. Tell Jill and Jonathan hello for us. Oh yea I still have the birthday card Jill gave Brandy, the one with a person laying on the part bench asleep and another standing up singing loud. You always said it was Brandy and Jill for sure.
Take care of yourself and we sure will add you to our parayers.

Jeannine, this has been a stressful week for most of us, your friends and family members too..When a great fiend has trials, unexpected issues that affect the rest of your life, and the loss of a companion, child or grandchild is so devistating and so hard to accept; however with your strong faith and support group of family and friends, I am confident you will work thru the bad times by remembering the good times you two have shared...Praying for peace and comfort for you, the kids and grands too...Stay strong in Christ and he will see you these difficult days to come..
