Dear RJ, Sissy and Larry. I am still trying to process the loss of your Mother and my best friend. I know it will hit me when I need to call her and tell her the “latest” secret or boring news. She was always there to give me advice or cheer me up. I know she is having a great time in heaven and heaven is having a great time with her. Love you all. Big N

Will miss you Granny Maebel. I guess no more Co-Pres for PIC anymore. We did have a good run. Hopefully see you in the very long future. Say hi to Mom and dad for me. Love you always.
