Barb, I only knew Bill because of you and saw him on many occasions. You were my seamstress for many years and I would come to your home. I was the one with the raised hip so dress hemming for me was a challenge and so appreciated your abilities. I had many years of seeing lovely Jenna growing up. You were the seamstress for my daughter, Jennifer, for her wedding dress. You were a lovely family and I am so sorry for your loss.
