Well, sugar, we are going to the D.A.'s office this week and tell them what we want. Seems Stout's lawyer is trying to get him off. Misty has written her thoughts already and given them to me. Aunt Mary is trying to be there also. Mike just didn't say anything when I told him he could tell the D.A. what he wanted. I will probably have to remind him. He is still having a hard time. As is Misty. Your brothers are also. They were both in denial for a long time. Paul figured Stout would not be given any sentence or punishment for what he did. Dale, well, when we talk, he breaks down sometime. Me, well, you know me. I am having to get all the costs together for the D.A. I will probably do that tonight. I am going to try to retire in approximately 6 months. I have a on-line business set up but am not able to work it as yet. I can't get my phone set up right. Hope to do that tomorrow. It will be good just to set home and work and not have to listen to everyone else. I have printed down pictures of the car. It is a mess. Trunk in the back seat. He must have been traveling at 90 mph or so. He doesn't know himself. He was so high on the drugs. They couldn't even arrest him the day the accident happened because he was not coherent. They arrested him the next day. He did spend the night in jail though. So far, he has been out driving and all that. He still has his rights; he took your all from you. The right to breathe, live, love and be happy. This just is not right. It hurts so much not having you here. I miss you and me talking, discussing whatever. Your smile. Your warmth. Will always. I suppose this gets better a long time down the line/road. That's what I hear. Right now, I don't think they are right about that. I love you, hon. Always will.
