Late Night Chaperone

On the many occasions that I spent the night over at the Schleede house when I was young, I remember one in particular. We decided to watch Old Yeller that evening. For a young dog lover, that was a little too much to handle. John had to help me gather up my over night things and walk me home. It was only 3 houses and a street away, but it seemed forever that night. John and Linda have been second parents to Emily and I ever since I can remember. We have come along ways since then, but thank you for the influence that you have had on me and the others in my life. Marie and I love you both.
