Not sure what to say?

With all I have heard and seen about you I can boldly say to anyone that your lottery spells are excellent without any doubts. Thank you for helping me win the lottery Dr Amber. Contact him via Email: amberlottotemple @ yahoo . com

I am so sad to find out the news of sweet Aunt Millie's passing. I'll never forget how excited I used to get, knowing we were heading up to the farm for a visit. Between teaching me about the animals, including me in easter egg hunts around the property, or simply sitting around the living room eating snacks and catching up, she always made my time there so much fun. I truly only have the fondest memories of her. She was so caring and so curious about everything I was up to. I remember how...

A memory of aunt Millie.
60 years ago at the end of a planned summer visit to the Dillsburg Farm I asked Aunt Millie if I could extend my visit and stay another week. While i am sure that Aunt Millie had many more duties and responsibilities to take care of she said yes. For me this was like winning the lottery,


another week of driving the Ford tractor and the 1937 flatbed truck, plunking groundhogs with my BB gun, playing with the two beagles, sniffer and Puchinella...

My Aunt Millie. I'll miss her so much. I have many memories of her, but one of my favorites actually belonged to my mom, Marie. She told me that they were good "buddies" - friends. On several occasions when Uncle Norm and my dad went out, they'd sit around the table and sneak a couple cigarettes and talk for hours. The born & bred city girl with the born & bred country girl.

Norm, Bob and family. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time. Blessings to all of you.

So sorry to hear of Millie's passing. She was such a great friend over the years. Our love and prayers are with the entire family. Cousin Adel and son, Bill

I'm so sorry to read of your family's loss. Please know you have my deepest sympathy.

To the Shelly Family, especially Delores and Norm who I sort of grew up with years ago via Chestnut Grove, you all have my sympathy. Mildred was in my Dad's class at YS, 1939, and, of course, we worked so much together at CG in Latimore among other things. She always treated me special! Her spirit will definitely be missed. My prayers and condolences to all of you.
