Bill and family so sorry for the loss of your Mom, she was the best. I have so many fond memories of our families getting together with Tithofs for picnics and block parties. My mom and dad absolutely loved there times on the boat with your parents they talked about it all the time. I had to keep you all in line when I babysat, boy does that go way back. I am so glad I was able to visit your mom a couple years ago at her beautiful home and catch up she was a joy. Know the Drissel family feels your loss and our prayers are with all of you today. God bless your family and may Shirley RIP.
