i am so sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. i met him at the last show and told him i had shot video of him during his standing ovation. he was very kind and graceful to allow me, a total stranger to keep this small piece of his life. please let his family know that my sons and i are here if they need anything. and to you Benny, I LOVE YOU and if YOU need anything, i am ALWAYS here for you!!!

your favorite insurance agent,

Hey Benny,

My prayers will be with the Kelly family...

Please say thank you to Nick for his dedication and service. It means more than words can say from this Marine Mom.

The pic of the dogs is great and love to hear that they crash with you at night, I thought that just took place at my son and daugther in laws home. They have a lab named Cash, pit/boxer - Dixie both 1 1/2 yrs old and the newest edition, a 8 week old pit Duke....never a dull moment in NC...

Looking forward to August......take care of yourself, your in my prayers!

Di
