Terry and Family,
We are going to miss the" Bingo Queen" on our visits to Riverside Convalescent Center. It just won't be the same without her. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Tom, Terry, Timmy, and Ted.....I am so very sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. Really feel bad that I did not get by to see her in West Point after to speaking with I believe Sarah over at the River's Inn a couple of months ago. I always think back to the many nights I spent in the "old white house" on tournament weekends; also how your dad showed me how to fish the creeks below the "cut thu"! And I never fail to remember the many breakfasts Grandma made for me in the 70s, 80s, and early 90s before those early morning tournaments. Oh yes, and the "Motherly advice" both your Mom and Grandma gave my new wife (Beryl) when we moved back here in the early 80s. Your family touched so many of us from all over the Mid-Atlantic, shaped childern's lives, and gave many families a place to get away and have a fun weekend of water sports and fishing. Your Mom is in a better place with many of our family and friends. God Bless each and everyone of you. John & Beryl Keegan, Williamsburg, VA

I will always remember your mom making our matching outfits for field trips and your dad's snow cone machine and saucer track when there alot of snow. I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She will be in our thoughts......Tom and Sue Poirier, Colorado Spring, CO

Dear Bubba,
I heard about your loss from Beckster (Morris) Holt and just wanted to write a note to send my heartfelt sympathy. I know how much your Mom meant to you. Would love to hear from you -- my email address is [email protected] -- drop me a line sometime. Don't know if you heard about Leigh Gray's recent passing; would like to get the Richfood girls together with Corinne for dinner sometime soon.
Love, Becky Wise Potter

To the Mikulas/Hunkele Family,
Your Mother and Aunt Marion were my babysitters when I was young. We lived upstairs of their home in Seville. Helen was someone that I looked up to and had always hoped to be as popular as she was. I knew your grandparents Helen and Big Martin very well. I didn't know Johnny as much as I did the rest of the family. On occasion I have heard how your family has been from your Uncle Fran Hunkele.
Just to let you all know how sorry I am for your loss.
