Cindy,
We are so sorry we did not know your Dad passed. Jerry just came back from services for a friend being held on the beach. Ran into a friend who said you had given him all Jack's Missouri things... Jerry asked who was it... then he literally guessed, as he said the man's wife had passed only a few day before. We had gone to see your Dad the day after your Mom passed... but in talking with a neighbor realized Jack may not have even known us. Please accept our condolences & sympathy.. as we will truly miss them both!! We cannot believe.. no word from the association... which is so sad!! Wishing it weren't so.... 'We Remember'.... hugs Sharon & Jerry

To Hynes family I extend my condolences to you .I have great memories of Mr. Hynes, my father Lovell Saunders whom he called Sandy worked at drive in and Mr. Hynes became friend to the family. After drivein closed I would look forward to seeing him march in parade I would make sure he saw me. I had the honor of doing a prayer for one of the services by his request .He will be remembered. May God comfort you during the passing of Mr. and also Mrs. Hynes.

Dear Hynes Family, Remembering fond memories about the Norwalk Drive-In days. Your parents were friends with mine, Jack (Chief Jack) & Lillian Panish, and our Dads did the "Mini Mo" together. We always were free to get into the drive-in as long as we all helped with the concession during the break before the feature. Your Mom and Dad are heaven's newest angels and hopefully meeting up with my parents.
