To the Vallely family. My heartfelt condolences. Ann and Jack were surrogate parents to me while growing up on Whitney Avenue in Portland Maine and shaped my childhood profoundly. And they were loyal and beloved friends to my parents..My mom and dad adored them,
I treasure the time we had together, and will always remember your mom's "wicked" smile and her open front door, and the hustle and bustle of your loving welcoming family.
God bless you all.
