Sorry about Mr. Clark. Marcia and I consider Rose and Jerry and their boys special friends (especially Harley). We also used to enjoy the annual singing at Sage when we were traveling as The Chaudoin Family.
We know grief is a heavy burdon but remember that we will be with them in eternity a lot longer than we will be without them here on earth.
May God bless you,
James Mack and Marcia Street -Marc, Jessica, and Tim
