Sending heartfelt condolences and prayers to Zoe, Glenn, Curtis and their families. The Ring family was always so good to my parents. My mother spent several years babysitting their two sons. I spent a lot of time with the boys as well. They were like two extra brothers to me. Love, hugs and sympathy for the loss of your husband and father.
