Billy and Mary, I am sorry that I am traveling and cannot make your mom's memorial. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Your mom was always someone that I looked up to and someone whom I sought out for simple advice or just a piece of plain common sense. Her involvement in our community was tremendous and her devotion to our emergency services was amazing. I will always remember your mom and will often use her as an example of a quiet and strong leader whom I would love for my sons to emulate as they grow. Best wishes, Mike
