We send our deep condolences to you, Bob, and to all of the family. Sheila has been our "first lady" for a quarter century, and we feel her spirit living everywhere around the Dock on the Bay. "No one knows how their story will end But that's all right. When we set out on a journey and night covers the road, That's when we discover the stars!" ...and the end becomes a beginning. With much love, Sheila and Richard - Posted by: Sheila and Richard Olin (Friend) on: Feb 15, 2005
