Jeanne and Christine,

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I have nothing but fond memories of your family. Wil had the patience of a saint to put up with the neighborhood gang that hung out at your store at the corner of North and Hickory Streets in Norwich. It seems like yesterday, where does the time go?
