We love you, Fred! I miss your teasing me while working in the garden. I loved your reaction when we asked if you wanted a bottle of water while you were working in that heat. You thought bottled water was a huge waste of money. I thank the Lord for placing me in your path. I miss you, and love you. Nancy and Don Watson
