My condolences to the Mullikin family. I worked at OnaTerrace when Bud and Virginia lived there. They were always a joy to be around and had such a great sense of humor. They were always such a loving couple. Again, my deepest sympathy, I know they will be deeply missed, somehow I think they might be at a Casino together again.
