My thoughts and prayers are with all the Mann family. So many years have been shared with your parents and you kids from birth. All the many times you've shared with our family and the faithful friends of Bob and Wanda, Earls and the rest of our family. May you all find peace knowing your family is back together again and free from pain and suffering. Life won't be the same without Bill and Louise, but think of the joy of them meeting up with Bob and Wanda and all your other family and friends. Happy memories abound. Bless you all.
