When my Dad married Gwen I could hardly wait to call her Mom, I needed her. She did the best she could to steer me in the right direction in life, I thank you for all you did. It could not have been easy as I can only imagine. Mom had lots of little sayings and rimes, here is one of them that stuck with me. Kiss me quick and treat me ruff oh how I love that caveman stuff. God Bless You and Keep You I know I'll see you again. Yours for ever Elmer - Posted by: Elmer Tough (Son) on: Jun 16, 2016
