Mrs. Blackmore is the mother-in-law of our own Sam Warren. You'll recall that we stood for Sam's father-in-law, Don Blackmore, back in January. Mrs. Blackmore herself made the request to have the PGR present at her services when the time came.

Thanks to everyone who attended for "Momma B". She was very impressed with the PGR and I'm sure she smiled big yesterday.
That was one smooth precession to the cemetery!
