Hi Monty. Do you remember me? So sorry to hear about your mom. My parents let me know, so I saw this in the paper. I will always remember you and your parents as so nice, either at Church or on the Mounties. Hey, when things settle down, drop me an email and let me know how your life is going. Husband, kids, horses, etc.......

All my best,

Gerard
