Shelley, It was with great pleasure that I got to meet with upi and all of your family - I will miss your visits and I am sad I never got to say goodbye to you. I will always remember Gay's smile and her witty personality. I will truly miss your mother and will think of her often, you will now have both parents watching you from above. Take care and sending you hugs.
I am so glad I got to meet Gay Bowen in this lifetime. I am grateful to her for producing my terrific friend Shelly, who in turn produced my wonderful friend Jody. In the words of our friend Louise."the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". Good thing I say. The wit, opinions and and strong will live on. Love to you both, and condolences to all the family.
