From the day we met at the DesMoines General Hospital a special friendship was formed. From that friendship many laughs and blessings have taken place. Maggie and Ned have been there for me in the good and really hard times and for that I am forever grateful. RIP Dear Ned and give everyone in Heaven a big hug! I will miss you dear friend but know I was truly blessed to have you as a friend. Prayers for your family and time to heal their broken hearts. Lora Kain and family
