Charles....We lived across the street from you on Poplar and I graduated with Irv. I helped with his funeral and when Cindy and Chip were small you rode them around your yard in a wheel barrow! Do you remember? Sorry to hear about Maxine. You were such great neighbors. Haven't seen Garth since my brother's funeral. Peace be with you.
