Hey Guys!
John emailed me about your Mom, just got it today... Was, very sorry to hear...But, now She, your Dad, and Sharon Marie can look out for one another..
I can still remember your Mom saying "shoot far.." to which ever one of you she was upset with...All of the help she gave us kids after my father passed and we were home alone while Mom worked...we always knew if something happened we could count on her,to help us..And, making all of the raspberry jam..oh! the jam and spaghetti sauce..And, that the signing/music was so much a part of your lives...God Bless You All...

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My father, Paul Crossman, used to call square dances at Dave Denneys Barn. My mother, Mary, sold tickets. I have such great memories of going there and remember Anne Marie singing Jambalaya. I can only assume that her family will have such special memories of her also.
