my soul. Boys, how much I love each of you and appreciated being your Mother.
Help Dad in the kitchen, and don't forget to change your socks! To extended
family and friends: Thanks for your love and friendship; it's been a wonderful
journey. And by-the-way, Dad; Mom is more beautiful than ever! Robin is

Cory; sons Jason, Logan, and Dylan; father Richard R. Russell; brother Kyle
