Not sure what to say?

Many years ago Gifford invited me to your home. Probably 1973. We were roommates at VFMA. I am sorry for your loss and would like to speak with Gifford and catch up with him. He came to my home when we were cadets at VFMA. God bless your family Ned Greenhow. [email protected]

They had 3 children together and each is now grown and following his/her own path. I am sure that Sarah was incredibly proud of them and took great satisfaction in knowing that she helped get them to this place.

My condolences to her family.

My condolences to Sarah's family. I haven't seen her since our childhood at NCCS, but remember her as if it were yesterday: so happy, smiling and effervescent. Many fond memories that cannot be erased by time and space. I send my prayers.

Our paths crossed again decades later, when both of us had finished raising families. And...
