Guestbook

  1. Some of my first memories are playing with Kristy when we were both so so young. She would belt out “Hey Mickey you’re so fine”…. with a free spirit I always admired.  I was happy to reconnect with her the last ten years talking at the Ozarks and about boating and raising or boys.  Such a wonderful girl gone so so early.  Prayers to all of you in this horribly tragic time.  Love.
