Wink,(I know that's what Evelyn called you), we are so sorry for your loss. We, Bob and I, are the Meals on Wheels delivery people that Evelyn told you about in relation to Sugar (and Squirt too). I, Carol, met you once when you were home from work with pneumonia last year. We loved Evelyn and always looked forward to seeing her on our delivery route. We were very upset when our route changed and we were no longer going to your home. Please take care and know that we care. Carol and Bob
