We always felt the above article was one of the best written pieces about Andrew and Jarrett.
Maybe now as I look back, it was more cathartic than anything else. The reporter (Ted Gregory)
called our house on Thursday before the Visitation and asked if he could interview us. We had
just gotten back from Conley's Funeral Home and Bob was quite distraught. Our house was full of
people so we left and went to Blackberry to talk to him. I remember saying, "I'd like to talk
about my boys." He promised that it would only take 45 minutes. It took an hour and a half. We
couldn't stop talking. He had children of his own and couldn't even begin to imagine our pain. We
didn't know our pain that well then, as well as we do now. God, I miss them so much.
