To my cousins Lorraine, Bobby, and Jeanne,
Your Mom was very dear to me. She will always be in my thoughts and prayers as is my dear Mother. We were given a gift to have them so long. With deepest sympathy, Kathy

Bob & Loraine

I wish to send my thoughts for your mother Trudy. You may not remember me but my name is Bob Frazier. I am the oldest son of Ansel & Mary Frazier of Upland Road in Quincy. It was through your dad amd mother that my family and I spent many wonderful summers in Plymouth. Ansel died in 2004 and Mary died in 1989. I hope that your sorrow is lifted knowing that you mother made an impact on my life. Although, she may not have known it but summering in Plymouth added so much to my life.

Bob and Loriane, I wish to thank you both and your wonderful parrants for coming into my life. I will say a prayer for you family. May the peace of god bless Trudy Tobin.
