Bob(Punky) and I had so many good times with Chuck and Laura in Florida along with the Melands. In later years, Laura would walk the beach down from Town Square to our condos midway down on Ft. Meyer Beach. What a Gal! Good memories last a lifetime. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
Our condolences to the Francis family…our prayers are with you all. John & Cathy Vidmar
