I hadn't seen Lisa in decades, but I have very fond childhood memories of spending a lot of time with her and Rick. Our parents farms were just down the road for each other. About once a week or so, we would load up the car and drive over to their place. Mom, Dad, Sophie and Rich would all drink coffee and visit while us kids would play outside, as all country kids did, or paddle pool if the weather was bad. Fond, fond memories!! Rick and rich I am so sorry for your loss.
