Surber Family,

I'm sorry to hear of Poppy's passing. I have so many memories of Poppy - some through experience, some through the stories I've heard from all of you. You are a special family. I first met Jean and her family when we became their neighbors in 1964. Her family, and many of the brothers and sisters, have been like family to me for these past 45 years. I cherish the times I've spent with you all. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
