Julie,
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. I loved going to your house as a kid. Your Dad was a kind and gentle man, and always made me feel welcome in your home. I always felt like one of the " girls".
Mrs. Brown,
I am sorry for the loss of your husband. I will always remember your family with loving thoughts; supportive, kind, and loyal. Your family helped me through a very tough childhood, thank you. I will pray for you and your family. God bless your family , Sue Mankins ( Michaud)

My deepest sympathy to David's family.
It was fun being a kid - snowball fights and Tripp Lake.
