Kris, Kathy, Don, we just heard of your loss. Our hearts go out to you. I meet Taylor and Tanner with Grandpa Don at the Airport. I remember a young man with a big smile and big blue eyes just like his mom’s. My sister lost her daughter at a young age to bone cancer. Our Meghan loved butterflies–so when my sister sees butterflies she finds some strength and some comfort in watching the butterfly. May you find something that gives you comfort and the strength to move forward in their name. Our thoughts and prayers are with you,Take Care, you were wonderful neighbors. Albecks
