I want to thank everyone who was able to spend time with Scot and Lindsey at the memorial service in Columbia. Scot had talked with his mother about the type of service she wanted to have to celebrate her life, and both Lindsey and Scot worked hard to make it happen. Thank you for sharing the experience with them.
I was so saddened when we received the info at the newspaper of Darla’s death. My heart went out especially to Scot. Although I only met him the one time, he holds a special place in my heart, and my love and sympathy are with the entire family.
