Guys sorry to hear about Mrs Anderson. They LOVE us kids from down in the bend. I will always remember us coming over and swimming and playing in the Barn. They are part of what made us, I hope good Family men today. Also most likely gave everyone one of us our first paying job at the car lot. I sure you have seen HOW much Big Daddy and Big Mama has meant to all of us over the last few days. God Bless all you.
