This week, we lost 2 of our closest friends in less than 24 hours. Mike Auten and Bob Mason were both amazing people. I met Bob when I was 19 years old. He was as close as a brother and like an uncle to our children. Mike and I spent priceless time together during my cancer recovery and he walked with us through some of the most difficult times in our lives. Our hearts go out to their families. They are now singing with the angels and catching up with those that left before them. You will both be missed. Love you Mike and Bob.
