Goodman Family, I am so sorry to hear that your beautiful wife and mother has left this earth. I drove through the old neighborhood about 2 months ago, contemplated parking the car and knocking on her door, I wish I had. She will be missed. My thoughts are with you at this time. She was a wonderful neighbor and friend. Lori
