Dearest Bo and Randy, I’m so sad to learn today 7/17/2019 that your sweet mother passed away July 9. I have notified Jerry and Larry. I’ll never forget her kindness to me and the fun times she and I had when she would curl my hair when I was a little girl. Would you believe I still have the little aluminum pan and the moss she planted in it for me when I was a little girl, too? Her precious memories will always live on with me. My deepest sympathy to you and your families.
