Garry, just happened to notice this obituary for your mother while looking for you. Of course I have memories of your parents and Sandy and Wendy. I now live in South Carolina, and Mashpee, MA in the summer, married to Linda Stadtman of Randlett Park, West Newton. We are both doing well and hope you are also.

Natalie Keil was a great friend to our mother Natalie Smith. She was a terrific person and our mother remembers some great times with her - trips to Florida, church activities, playing bridge, and spending New Year's with the girls. We will have fond memories of Nat.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Tally Smith and children (Meredith, Debbie and Clint)
