[Dailydrool] Tina and Frank the Tank

[Jacquelynn Chazey]

Welcome Tina,

I am sure Sarah sent you to your family.  I  was blessed with Pierre Jr.
much the same way from Pierre Sr.  shortly after he departed (much too young
when he left).  Your video brought joy to my heart.

God Bless and Good tidings,

Jackie and the hounds
