Guys,
I sent Sheri and the girls a note on Friday. This is her response. I thought you would all like to read it.

Graydon,
Thank you so much for thinking of us. It was a tough day. I went to the cemetery with some friends and family and took Dr. Peppers, Mark's favorite. Our daughters were not able to go. It's too soon for them. Marisa is doing OK. Jessica is still struggling. She was hospitalized in May with an infection in her foot, in June for surgery on her knee and this month for another surgery on her knee and one on her ankle. We just got discharged last week. She is still trying to walk. Her spirits are pretty low after a year of living in pain. It's still a "wait and see" prognosis. Plus, she's 13 and all that entails.
We miss Mark every day on so many levels. He'll have his 56th birthday on August 5 and it still doesn't seem real that he's not around. Please forward this message to anyone in the 18 watt group that knew him. Give them our sincerest thanks for all the kindness they've shown us.
...and thank you too, Graydon.
Sheri, Marisa and Jessica Durham
