Yesterday

We have many happy memories of Gail's neighborly friendliness on Osceola Road in Richmond. Gail and Joe welcomed us into their home on many occasions, and we remember their delight over their grandchildren. We were always happy to see them when we arrived for the Tanglewood season. With warmest condolences, Martha Babcock and Harvey Seigel
