Oh the memories I have. The night after the PK closed, we were cleaning up with he music up loud & Leona decided to teach us how to jitterbug. We all laughed so hard. The evenings spent at "Ma & Pa's playing cards & Arnie & James always winning. Staying up til 2:00 AM playing Frogger with my "Other Mother". I will never forget the loving kindness of my Howard family. God bless & comfort you all as you mourn the loss of your wife & Mother.
