Many years ago (1982-1984) I bowled at the Chez Ami Lanes on the same league as John and June. Very competitive they were and very much fun! Great memories. My thoughts and prayers to June and family.

I was sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I have fond memories of all of you at Big Pine Island Lake. What a wonderful time of life that was for all of us. Linda, Thank you for contacting me when my brother, John, passed. I am thinking of all of you today.
