Footie. I am so sorry for your loss. With your Husband’s passing and your Mom’s recent passing I can only say I am truly heartbroken for you. Always know I love you. I will always cherish the times you were our babysitter. Those were glorious tomes that will never be forgotten. We had more fun than was allowed but we did it anyway. Tootie, always know you positively affected me and I will always be grateful. I will always love you. Bill D.
My heartfelt sympathies go to Tootie and her children at this very difficult time. What a heartbreaking loss after losing her mother recently. So deeply sorry, Tootie.
Just remember Gienva (sp -sorry) his mom yelling at him (BILLY MARSHALL!!). Danny remember you got your name in there a few times. Also remember coming to dinner and staying with you all while my parents went visiting all family members and your Mom making me eat carrots. Still don’t like them. I didn’t realize Billy was a year and 3 days older than me. Time flies. I am so sorry about missing funeral but just found out about Billy today (7 of May). I am deeply sorry for your loss and for not visiting while I had a chance
