I have been friends with the Emond family since I was in elementary school.  As young girls, we did some pretty embarrassing things.  When in about the fifth grade, Tessie, Anna, Bailley and I were galavanting throughout the Emond household performing our reenactment of the movie, Coyote Ugly.  Our grand finale took place on our stage, a.k.a. the Emond classroom table for home-schooling.  This consisted of singing as loud as we could into our microphones (hairbrushes) and dancing our hearts out.  We had no shame as we considered ourselves professionals, until dad got home.  Todd walked into the house, we girls completely oblivious to his entrance, until there in our sights we saw our audience, Todd and Esther, laughing almost uncontrollably, yet clapping and cheering.  That is the type of person Todd was, always supportive.  Thank you for being such a great support and friend to my family and I.
