Mark & Marci. I´m sorry to see that Brenda has passed and was afraid that would be the case from your earlier posting. Many good memories of times we spent together as kids. My thoughts are with both of you and your families during this difficult time. It was 5 years ago on the 3/29 that Mom passed away. Big hugs to you both. Michael
