Rowswell Family
We were deeply saddened to hear of your loss. I have fond memories of the time that I had the pleasure of bumping into David on a flight a number of years ago and how he quite promptly let the lady sitting in between us know that I was his cousin "Twiggy" and that she would need to move so that we could catch up after not seeing one another for more than 15 years. May your fond memories of David assist you in this time of your loss.
Sincerly,
Sheila and Arnold Perepalkin (Briggs)
