Dear Diane, So sorry to hear about the loss of your father. No matter how old we are, the loss of a parent is still very hard. May he Rest In Peace. Please, give my sympathies to your family too, especially your brother Rich, I believe Ray and I went to St. Joe's with him.

I was so sorry to learn of my dear friend Guy's passing. I was friends with Guy for over 40 years, most of my adult life. Some of those years we worked together. Despite our age difference we had a strong friendship. I will truly miss him. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time.Mark and Barbara Dewlow
