So sorry to see this happened. John & Charlotte were such gracious hosts when Mandy brought me home with her when we were in college. Memories of Julio and going out on the river. Such a caring, wonderful family. I know I’ll see him again one sweet day. Thinking of you and praying for peace for you.
