John took so many photos of Dale and the boys...Stephen, Corey and Colin...on the camping trip you took with the trio of little guys. Such wonderful smiling faces and good times with Dale and John -how could they NOT have fun?
Those are the times I will remember with Corey and Stephen....happy days with people who loved them and provided them with comfort and wonder.
Comfort and peace to all of you.
Terry and John
