I've had so many obstacles to overcome growing up small and short, and without my parents. I think they'd be very proud of me and my family and how successful I am as a "Riverboat Captain" working on the river 31 years and being married 37 years come this July 26th "2008". There's no doubt they would adore all of their Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren. They missed out on so much, and we all missed out on having them in our lives.
