Kathy and Greg
I was thinking of you and your family today. I still have so many memories and pictures of Kristin when she was young.
I remember the family reunions at Grand Bend and the week long vacations at Gramma and Grampa McFalls where I would have a chance to spend time with Kristin, Susan and Jill.
She was a great person and a wonderful golfer.
I hope she is happy and at peace.
