Even though we never knew each other--I was shocked and saddened to hear of your tragic death. My daddy bought that house on Wildwood Road back in 1970. We were still living there when I left home to get married. My heart goes out to your wife and friends. Our neighbor Mrs. Collins, is truly saddened by the loss of such a wonderful and kind neighbor and friend. May God bring peace and comfort to them all. May you rest safely now in the arms of the Lord Jesus. Most Sincerely,~Marilyn
