Tom and Pearl Stork Apache Junction, AZ October 31, 2019
"Dear Jen and Chris, Our sincere sympathy in the recent loss of your dad. Pearl worked for the city and Tom and your dad played poker for 20+ years on Friday nights once a month. Oh the memories of those days and your dad knew I never bluffed in poker. We enjoyed the summer parties at the lake. God bless all of you and you grieve and then remember the good times.
