My deepest sympathy to you and your families. I'm reminded of the days when family and friends would gather at someone's home, strum on guitars and sing to their hearts content. I enjoyed that era of my life. I had great respect for both Uncle Stan and Auntie Judy. I miss them both. May they Rest in Peace.
