Please accept our sympathy in the double loss of Dorothy and Bob. We can't imagine how hard it is for your families at this time. The last time we saw Bob and Dorothy they were together having dinner at Chili's. We had a nice conversation with them, and they both seemed relaxed and happy. Our thoughts are with you and yours. Joyce and Bill
