    Richard and Aunt Jackie
    I am saddened to hear about Gramma Lol. I wish i could have met her in person but circumstances never allowed that. I did get a brief chance to talk on the phone with her which was nice. Even though we are not a close family please,keep in mind that all of you are still in my heart.
    Love
    Chad
