I just wanted to forward my condolences upon the death of your sister Ann. You had a wonderful mother and father and siblings. It must be sad to see them all go. I hope that you and your wife Mildred are doing fine. All is well with me. I have retired after 33plus years with Shell Oil Co. and have remained here in Houston Texas since retirement in 1990.

Joe, I just want to forward my condolences to you on the death of your sister Ann and also on the death of your other two siblings. Your mother and father raised a fine family and I am sure that it is difficult to see them go. Hope all is well with you.
I am doing fine here in Houston Texas where I have been for 42 plus years since being transferred here in 1970 by Shell Oil from whom I retired in 1990 after 33 plus years of service.
Hope all is well with you and your wife.

Sharon and family, So sorry to hear about your mom. Growing up I always felt a part of your family. I remember the roast beef dinner on Sunday and Mark always saying " go home Raymond" ! Your mom always had a smile on her face. You are all so lucky to have a big, close and loving family as you do. I have been praying extra hard for you this week. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers. Always Jean Raymond Gamache East Greenbush NY

To all my Gavin cousins,
I'm so sorry to hear about Aunt Ann. I was telling my Dad last night I never can recall her ever not having a kind word, a smile and a genuine interest into what all the members of our family were doing with their lives. A one of a kind person with strength and character unlike anyone I've known. Just a wonderful Aunt who I'll miss very much.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sharon, Jerry, Theresa, Tom, Mark, Mary and to your families, I am so sorry for the loss you are experiencing now. Your moms laughter and all the calls we received keeping us abreast of family news will be what I remember and sorely miss. My best memory, the one that makes me laugh, (and Beth says this is hers too) is the car that our school bus used to pass almost every day on the way to CCHS. Many on the bus would groan and say oh no not behind the slow poke car again. Neither Beth or I would ever admit to anyone on the bus that was our dearest Aunt Ann. We shared that story with your mom and she laughed too. Both of us continue to think of those days and still chuckle. My love to all of you, Maura

My children growing up called her "Aunt Ann from church" because that is where they always saw her, and I will always remember her as a woman of faith and tremendous kindness. Know that this is not goodbye and you will see her again. God Bless.

My oldest children grew up calling her "Aunt Ann from Church" because that is how they remember her, as a woman of faith and love. She is with God now and please know this is not goodbye.
