Kenny, Allan and Steve and all the Doan Family - Linda and i are so sorry to hear of Martha's passing. But she is now in Heaven with Monty. Its hard to lose a parent but they have left you with many wonderful memories. They will always be in your lives and will be watching all of you from Heaven. When i first met Linda, I also meet the Gang - the Bowmans, the Wages and the Doans - what a wonderful group of people. They are now all in Heaven but we will cherish their memories forever. God bless your families.
