Bill, Sue, Sam, Fran and Families, we would like to extend our condolences to you on the passing of your mom. A lot of fond memories, of your folks, growing up in the "happy days" neighborhood in Greenville. Your mom was able to put up with all the neighborhood kids in the pool all summer. When the flag went up it was time to swim and enter a swarm of kids. It was practice for managing all the horses. Later, when visiting Greenville, it was great to meet them, the Wyckoffs and my folks for Sunday morning breakfast north of Turk Lake. Sorry we are unable to be there, but our thoughts are with you all.
