Dearest Kristen & Kimberly, I am very, very sad about your mom's passing. Please know that I loved your mom and dad so much. I loved them especially for bringing you into this world. What wonderful memories I have of you both as babies. I'm so happy that I was at least part of your life even if only for awhile.

Rest in peace Betty. Give Freddy a kiss from me.

Love Ginny

Your parents were great neighbors. I have great memories of them. I still have the bird feeder your dad helped my boy, James build. I am so sorry for your loss.
