Unfortunately its a little too late to thank you again but I am beyond blessed to be a part of your family. You took me in as a 9 year old mischievous young boy and taught me some old tricks that you had learned that even made me meaner. lol But you showed me what family is all about with your love and late night holiday get togethers. You will always be remembered for your friendly, kind, and mischievous soul. Thanks and love ya Champ until we meet again. Jamie
