Sharon, so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing; she was a great lady with her ready smile. I remember all the summers at Bostwicks when we all hung out and babysat. Your Mom always kept us straight.

Sharon, Lorie, grand kids, great grand kids, I lived next door to this lady and her husband in Shelburne back in the 60's...as a newly wed. She taught me so much about cooking, was there for my first born, saw a recipe on facebook for Maple Syrup Frosting...she taught me how to make that...I am going to do it again in her honor. Mary you have waited so very long to be with Louie...you put more than your time on earth...the Lord has something special for you in his Kingdom. Fly away into their arms....
