I wrote a note for Kevin and Debbie, remembering the good times I had with Reva during your childhood years . We had such fun. I had to leave while writing so I lost my message. I’m trying to push buttons (Keyes) and find it. I will send it to you if I do. In the meantime, I’m sorry to hear of Reva’s passing.
