My mother's parents, Grandpa and Grandma Gould, came for
my graduation
day. They took care of my brother, Brent, when we had to go to the doctor
in Detroit. They have both
passed away, but our love for them will
always be in our hearts.
Grandad and Granny Abbott, dear family friends,
took care of my brother whenever we needed them.
Brent stayed with them during one of my surgeries.
They are a very special couple and we love them.
Grandma and Grandpa Vinton took care of Brent also.
They
had family Christmas at their house every year
until 1972 when our family moved to Atlanta so my
father could go
into the ministry. They passed away
ten years ago. They are dearly missed and we treasure
the special times we had
with them.

Tom's family is very loving and thoughtful! All of them have supported and encouraged us from the first day we met. Peggy even came all the way to Mayo Clinic when I had my third surgery in 1992.
We lost Tom's dad six years ago, and his mother passed
away last July. Our hearts are broken over their departure from
this life, but the times we had together were the best.
