Mary Ann and Carroll were dear neighbors of my parents while living in Godfrey and were great support for my father after my mother's passing. I have many fond memories of watching your pets -- Johnny Mike and Tyra -- and accompanying your parents to equestrian competitions. They were amazing, accomplished people and I will miss them both.
