Dear Patty, Pam, Kim & Kristy - you may not remember us, but we were neighbors of yours on Meyer Court in the early 70's. Patty babysat for our daughter, Jenny, and Kristy was Jenny's first "real" friend! Even though we no longer live nearby, we remember your family as being so special and so loving. Your parents were wonderful people, and we send you all our sincere condolences. With love, Sharon and Jerry Steffel
