My dear cousin what a beautiful tribute to your life last night and today. I do not think I have ever seen that many people at a viewing. The funeral was so uplifting and inspiring. You are loved by so many family members and friends. Say hi to John Wayne for me. I still have my treasured post card of Roy Rogers on his horse you gave me years and years ago when I was a young girl. Thank You dear cousin.
