I recently met Marianne through MasterDrive as I was her coach for her driver skills. I even got to see pictures of Peter and Sarah. My condolences go out to her family as I was unable to truly get to know anyone in the family. Marianne, I bet your mother was proud of the performace you displayed for you father during recital in your wonderful "new" Volvo. Keep it smooth and god bless.
