Rick and I will miss eating out with Allen and Lavera, and sharing the same birthday of November 30th. We won't forget our "double dates." We will also miss the times we all four sat on the front porch of the cabin Allen built and enjoy the mountain scenery. Lavera, our prayers are with you and your children during this painful time.
