"Shelly and family, so sorry to read about your dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this tough time. My parents are together again, as of Mom's passing in May and the 4 of our parents are probably comparing notes about some of the stories you, Renee, and I told them as to why we were always late getting home in high school!! Again, you have my sympathies.
Steve, Connie, Stephanie, & Courtnie"
