Linda and Kenny,
I first must say how profoundly, utterly sorry I am to hear of the loss of your beloved son Drew. I remember meeting him when he was just a little one when Bill and I came to visit on our way to Florida. He made a really funny comment to Bill about how his daddy had a big gun or something like that. So obviously proud of his daddy. I was trying to find you Linda since we had lost touch and I am so sorry that this is the way I found you. I was back and forth to Georgia 4 times in 2009 when my stepmother died and I wish that I had found time to get in touch then.
Please know that your family is in my prayers. I think of you so often and what a lovely friend and person you are. All my love,
tammy Tebo sipfle
