Mr. and Mrs. Hyske were my neighbors while growing up on Windsor Drive. My memories include neighborhood runs/bike rides together, always-manicured yards, their wire-haired terrier, Pierre, and most meaningful their heartfelt words at the loss of my parents. They rest in peace together now in the presence of the Lord. May this knowledge give you peace as you mourn their loss.
