Thanks Karen, I am so thankful that you found this guest book. I let Walter know that you had posted an entry. It is wonderful to know that you have such fun memories. Mum really loved your parents and never forgot them. I'll try to post more pictures to honor her memory. Thanks, Anne

Children of Florence Morris, I baby sat for each one,and all of you,when your folks lived on Lewis St. in Needham. Your Mom was the kindest woman I ever met. She aways had time to stop a second to answer questions from a curious child, and loved to be brought bouquets of wild violets,liliacs and lily of the valley. Her gentle ways and kind spirit, are some of my fondest memories. She and the other ladies, of the sew and sews group,that got together to knit and sew things for the church fairs, always had such giggles,as they worked. Walter do you still like grass hoppers? You mom taught me to always empty a child's clothing from the wrong side out. And to do it outside 'cause you never know what you'd find in a childs pockets. My thoughts go out to you and your sisters, may God bless you all, Karen ,daughter of the late John and Bunny Turney
