Butch,
My childhood neighbor and friend. WOW! What a shock hearing of your passing. I am so grateful that we got together this past June at the guy re-reunion in Tewksbury (Thanks Tussy). Butch, Bob Hall, Sandy Mann and I all sat together for dinner and had a great evening talking about old times. I will never forget you and all of the fun we had growing up in Tewksbury. My sincere condolences to all of your family.

Lisa and Family,
I was so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. Knowing that he is in great company and not suffering anymore will hopefully bring you comfort. My heart goes out to you and your family at this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I love you,
Marla

I grew up with the Howes family in Tewksbury. I was friends with Donna and did the neighborhood "yearly summer shows". I've thought about the family through the years, as I lost track of my old friends. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss of Jim.
