“Best memory is going to the Vivian car show in 100 degree in the shade. Tom and Steve Robinson (okdockie) and I sat and talked cars, wars and life in general. Just saw Tom a few weeks ago and shared a conversation and joke or two. Prayers to the family as we say so long and till we meet again. The Purple girl. LMDenke”
