Eddy, Peter, and Paul i am so sorry to hear of you mom’s passing. Last stopped by house after Tommy passed. Talked to your dad on computer occasionally. Your parents were the greatest. Only neighbors had contact with. It was always time to start the party on the holidays when they walked through the door. Would be so much fun and laughter. Yes that was where they went after the formalities of day was over. Your mom was the only one to be able to play cribbage with my mother’s husband, no body else liked him. Lol
She was our bus driver – tough job!
I made a donation to the Alzheimers Assoc. In her memory. So sorry about a friend and neighbor of so many years.
Faded memories but deepest sympathy for your loss.
