Gene I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am to hear of the loss of you son. I deliver the mail once a week & he would be there waiting for the mail when you were away. He always wanted to take care of you. I would see him in the KFC/Taco Bell & he would always say hi to me. I just lost my husband of 26 years so I truly understand. Well I will watch out for you once a week when I deliver the mail. GOD BLESS!! you & your family. Time will heal. Its helping me. Just take it one step/day at a time.
