I was very saddened when I heard of the passing of Mrs. Collins. I will always be grateful for how Mr. & Mrs. Collins treated me. I felt like I was a part of their family and was good childhood friends with Tom Jr. I will always cherish the fond memories of growing up around the Collin's home. My thoughts and prayers are with you Tommy, Tracy, and Patty.

Terrie was an angel in the making while with us. She entered my life when she met my husband Don’s brother Tom and we were all blessed that he found her. I only wish that geography hadn’t separated us through the years. In spite of that, I felt a bond with her in her outlook on how to be a wife and mother. We’ll all miss you, Terrie.

A sad goodbye to an old friend and beloved neighbor. I will forever miss our times in the old neighborhood where neighbors knew the importance and meaning of good neighbors. I will think of you and Tom everytime I run my vacuum....May you and Tom continue your journey together amongst the angels! Barbara and David Hoffman
