,

What a great idea and a wonderful way to spend the second anniversary

of your grandmother's passing. As close at it sounds you and your

family are, I am sure she would be so proud of you to do this! )

Isn't it great to have a close family? I am also in one of those and

I don't know what I would do without them! Mom and Dad are there

through everything. Heck, they took and I to Chicago! I

don't know if you remember me. But, I stood in for Jodi Zwain by the

pool when you were running the game. I can't remember what game it

was though! LOL. She had me watch over the prizes for a few

minutes. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that your walk idea is

wonderful, and don't apologize for telling your story! I loved

reading it. )

Take care and have fun on the 2nd,

Jodi R.

Stacey,

Sounds like a perfect way to celebrate your grandmother's life -

don't worry - I believe she'll be there with you or at least watching

over you!
