I wanted to give my condolences to the Radcliffe family. Mrs. Radcliffe was great babysitter to me any my sister and was a blessing to my family. I am grown now, and I still think about my childhood memories with her.
I am glad that I got a chance to thank her as an adult 3 years ago. Her and Mr. Radcliffe will always be dear to my heart.
