Charlie, My heart goes out to you in your time of loss. I can’t believe the heartache you are going through loosing Bill, Anna & now Mitch. You are in my prayers while I reminisce about the love I felt for your family! When I returned home to Richwood I would try to stop by & visit Anna at the restaurant & then at your home. Even after so many years had passed by I continued to be welcomed & loved! With fond memories. Love Sonja (Webb) Horn
