I have fond memories of your father and mother from Track meets and Track practice during my grade school years at St. Peters. Your Dad would always send me up "to see Mrs. Bridgman" after an event. I would find your Mom at the top of the stands with a cooler overflowing with sandwiches and homemade cookies. They dedicated so much time to church and community. I know my Mom and your Mom are singing together in a much better place. With Sympathy and Love, Rose Romanick Plummer
