Linda,
Our family is so sorry about your loss. Right now it is hard to walk by your home, with that scarecrow in the front, and not remember those friendly and "neighborly" conversations. You both were always so kind to allow my boys and myself to enjoy "your lawn" during the Christmas Boat Parades these past years.
