Mary, you were a wonderful addition to the Bethke family and I loved our conversations and getting to hear your fresh points of view. You left this Earth entirely too soon, rest in peace. Jr., I'm incredibly sorry for your loss and can't imagine how this feels. I hope that you know that I love you so much and am thinking about you. If you ever want to talk, I'm here for you.
