I love and miss my AUNTIE. I was always excited upon her visits. She had a habit of pinching my jaws. She always brought playmates, my cousins. Miss those days when we were all together, family.

Hello Gloria and Family, I remember your family from when my family lived on Rowe Street in North Hampton. Growing up, I always thought your Mother was one of the prettiest ladies around…I haven’t seen you all in many, many years. I was saddened when I heard of her passing and I wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am Lorraine, the daughter of Otis and Lucy Baldwin.

Patrice & Jean,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. Your mom was a very loving and caring person who will truly be missed. She will always have a special place in my heart.

Gloria Jean and Patrice, It was pretty sad to learn that your Mom passed and I am so sorry. I can remember the many, many years in which you all would come to visit my mom at least once a week (in which you and Patrice was always with her) and I don't believe there were many weeks that Gracie missed. I will truly miss her as well because she was a talker and my mother was a talker and they always was there for each other. Now they are together in Heaven and both are looking down upon us.
