FrogLadyrb@aol.com [mailto:FrogLadyrb@aol.com] Dear Carol,Lori,&Dale, I'm so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was really a sweet person in my eyes. She was always there for me when I needed her to baby sit my kids when I needed a last minute sitter. And yes, she had them a lot over night too when I worked until closing or if I went out for the night. She has always held a special place in my heart. I know she is now in a better place and not suffering anymore. And Lori it was so nice talking with you the other night, please keep in touch. Love, Aunt Ruth Renee
