Tay, we will never forget the talks and your laughter. You filled a huge gap after Olga stopped being "Gruner News Center." I was lucky to be in some of the great many calls between you and Neen as well as some of our own. When you were here in February 2003 we had some wonderful conversations.
Your letter celebrating our “Fiftieth" will always be treasured as will be our many great memories of you

How I will miss talking wih Tay.
The last few years when Tay was living alone at "52", we spent many, many hours on the phone reminiscing about family and keeping each other posted on what was going on with everyone. Even now the thoughts keep popping into my head--"I must call Tay" or "Tay will be calling me soon to let me know how things went". She had a remarkable memory and shared so much with me. I am so grateful we had those times together.
Tay dearly loved children. The happiest times of he life were those spent with all her nieces and nephews. None will forget her warmth and generosity. She had a huge list of people whose birthdays she always remembered. I marvelled at how good her mind and memory were.
Tay, I will love you and miss you always. "Neen"

It was always so wonderful visiting "52" and "The Lodge". I have such fond memories of Tay... her generosity, her sense of humor, and her zest for life. She was a delight!

I feel very blessed to be a part of the Gruner family. I have so many wonderful memories of "52" and New Hampshire! I will always remember Tay as an extremely generous and funny woman with a great heart!

Our family visited Tay last summer. She was the same special person I had known, first as a child and later as an adult. She always took the time to visit with me and help adjust to chaos that was so typical during a 52 visit. I have so many wonderful memories of those visits with her and she will always be in my thoughts.

My family and I will miss all the good times at "52" and "Bean Berry Lodge" . The memories of my extended days and nights, and especially Christmas with Santa, in Milton, and the happy days of summers at "The Lodge" will be with us always.
