    Brian, I think I remember when your mom decided to take courses for her degree. I had the pleasure of meeting her acquaintances as well as you boys. You all are fondly remembered. Time passes quickly and good times as well as good people not forgotten.
    Sincerely,
    Jeanne Frizzell
    (Scott Vaughn’s mom)
