RIP my friend. I have know you almost as long as Corrine and longer then Shelly. From Pascal Street in Curtis by the Bay to now and beyond you are my neighbor. I remember the snow storms that shoveled out paths so that we could make forts for us kids to play in. I remember one time with your ornery self you shovel a tunnel out for us kids to crawl through. Not very big or deep but somehow it collapsed on me. lol I always admired you. You worked so hard and took care of your family. I remember when you moved your family to Greenhaven. I remember spending many nights doing sleep overs with you all. Corrine and Shelly I will be praying for you and your families. May the peace of God that passeth all understanding be upon you. May His grace carry you and may His love comfort you. I love you guys. Sandy McCoy
