    Sending my deepest condolences to Norm and Melissa and families during this time. Your dad was always nice and polite when ever we were all at the farm. I remember going to his and your moms home when my family came back to the states. I spent a week there and went crabbing for my first and only time while I was there. Those memories I remember with all of you I will remember always. Wish I could be there to say goodbye but for personal reasons I can’t. Just know my heart is with you during this time. Love you always cousins.
