I remember as a kid visiting all of you at Waterman's Lake. It was always a great thrill for us to get together with your family. My mother (Eleanor Jacques Damon) always spoke of Claire, Kathleen and MaryLou from when they were children. My mother also passed away this year and we all know the void it leaves. Our heartfelt sympathy to all of you....I'm sure they are all together again.

Dear Robert, Ronald, and Philip. Our deepest smpathy in the loss of your Mom. She and your Dad were very special people. We will always remember the times that we were together and the fun we had. We met your Mom when Bill was teaching with your Dad. They were always ready to make someone smile.
May the Lord give you the strength through these difficult times. You are in our prayers.
