Mark and family, Your mom and dad had a special place in my heart. Having been raised on Dill st.(and still there) I used to babysit Gary (I do my best to be a pest) and your dad often gave me a ride to my first job, which was on his way to work. He was the one who showed me that you could see the top of the White Mtns. from atop Applesass hill back then. Your mom missed him and Gary so much and now she is with them and will watch over all of you from Heaven. I attended the funeral this morning with my mom, Ida Girouard and it was a beautiful service, she must be very proud of all your family. Take Care, Love, Claire(Girouard ) Cyr
