I was sorry to hear about your mom's passing. Cherish the memories from your many years with her. Thinking of you at this difficult time.
Dear Dennis and Irene. We are so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. She was such a wonderful, quiet spoken lady. I remember she told us how Ed and her would have their lunch together every day on their swing in the backyard. They had so many wonderful years together, traveling the continent, and they were so proud of their grandchildren. Sorry that covid prevents you from getting lots of hugs, but please know we are thinking about you.
