To Kathy & Mark,
I was so sad to hear of the loss of your parents. I have great memories of our childhood with our parents taking us to the children's ball and to the red coach grill on our birthday's and I can always remember your mother marching in the parade and my mother calling out Lydia and she would give us a big wave when she marched for the PAV. So sorry for your loss and we will always remember our parents.

Love
Michael Wilcox
