Dear Kelly Family,
I have fond memories of the Kelly's, Hicks'and Brennan's. Growing up, number four child of Paul and Mary Shipley, I recall the dinner parties they all shared. Banished upstairs after getting an early supper, we could hear the fun and laughter below us. When we could tell everyone had gone into the dining room we'd sneak down to grab any leftover hors d'oeuvres. Your Mom and Dad could see us from where they were sitting and we would get a wink from your Dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I know your Mom has earned her spot in heaven. Love always, Susan Shipley Gemmell
