It’s a cool day in mid September right now and and I’m with my two sons, Jack and Daniel. Love and good thoughts to you and Big Gene. I’ve been thinking about you and telling the boys about you all morning.

The entire Whitaker family, led by always kind, sharp,and interested Mrs. Whitaker was a big part of my youth growing up on South Warner Road. Her life defined motherhood in all aspects of the term. I'm sorry I couldn't make it down today for the services but wanted to send my condolences to you all. Frank
