Vickie and Cathy, I was so deeply saddened today when my Dad told me of your moms passing. Although the years and distance have come between us, my Dad and I will always consider y'all such dear friends. I know he kept in touch with her and they would communicate a few times a year. We enjoyed a fond memory of when we all would go crawfishing in St. Gabriel. Something I still think back on with a smile.
