Boys I loved your mother very much! We were such great friends and really had some good times together - your Mom and I. I remember the night that Nicky was looking for his Mom. I had taken her to the Par-a-dice Casino. Time got away from us as we were having such a great time. It was around 11:30 p.m. before we got home. I think we giggled all the way home. I miss her very much!! Nancy Sudduth
