Dear Lee,
I was so saddened to read of the loss of Rick. Such a great guy. He could make you smile and laugh at 6:30am delivering all that beer. I have lots of great memories..Steve and Rick are sharing some great stories now.You were a wonderful caregiver., don’t ever forget that. Most people don’t know the struggles of Alzheimer’s but we both do. Love to you and the family at this very difficult time.
Dear Lee
Our sympathies and prayers are with you as you live your life without Rich. May the good memories you two had together be ever more dear!
Sincerely,
Bill and Bobette Hostein
