Alma was like a mother to me, treating me like one of her daughters, and I will be forever grateful for the love and guidance she and Donald gave me and my family over the years. Women like Alma showed us by example how to set priorities in this life...and how to make jam on a campfire in Montauk...just one of many lessons she taught of how we can make wonderful things from very little resources. Thank you, Alma. We will all miss you and we will never forget what you gave us.

Sue and I have lost another dear aunt; the last of the Ketcham girls. We will remember our recent visit with her and her gift of the tickets to the Historical Society Gardens. She loved gardening, the finer things in life and she gave back too. The cousins will never forget the generous gift of that precious cabin in Montauk where young girls and boys grew into young men and women and shard Uncle Donald's love of the out of doors. Our sympathy to all of our cousins and their children who made her wish of staying home possible. Until we meet again

My family and I spent many happy days and nights with Don and Alma camping with the Seagulls. My thoughts and prayers go to the family.

Alma and her family have been long time friends of my family. She was a special person, who gave more of herself, than she ever expected to receive.My heart is heavy over her passing, and my thoughts are with her family. We'll miss you Alma!
