Memories of Lemon

I married Lemon's brother Bill (WR).  We lived in the Kansas City area so we didn't visit Lemon very often, and I'm not sure I remember the first time I met Lemon, but I always looked forward to trips to Georgia to spend a little time with the Ruff family.  Family is important.  My last memory of Lemon would be in May of 2011 when Bill and I made the trip that I knew would be his last.  Lemon had just gotten out of the hospital and we spent some time with him.  Bill and Lemon did a lot of reminicsing and I know that Lemon and Bill both knew when they said goodbye that it was the last time they would see each other on this earth.  Bill was dying of cancer and passed in October of that year.  I wish we had lived closer and could have spent more time with him, but I also know that Lemon and Bill are having a great reunion in heaven and there won't be 700 miles seperating them now.
