I was deeply saddened to hear of Amelia's passing. I didn't know she was ill! My prayers and thoughts are with you in this sorrowful time. She was a special lady, and will not be forgotten by those of us who loved her. Jessie (Beatty) P. Treece

Anytime I go up 75 I'd look towards the house and also at Margarets house and wonder how everyone was doing. I remember Fred when I was little coming and working on the freezers at my Mom and Dads (Helen & Walter)house.
Bless you at this time and may happy memories carry you through.
