    Nell, It's amazing how quickly time goes by making our memories of time spent together even more precious. You and Jessie were one of our most favorite couples...We each had just one child each in those days...horseshoes, children playing ...good friends, lots of laughter...I'm so sad for you today. I pray that The Lord will fill you with His peace and comfort you and each family member in the days to come. Love and hugs...
