Oh gosh, Karen, I just SAW the obituary of your Mom passing away! My heart goes out to ALL of you with your loss! I have the fondest memories of her, as I would always run up to New England and stay with you guys in my young 20’s! What a dear Woman, my Aunt, who was always so welcoming of me to stay with you guys! I remember a lot of fun times!! And even when Pat and I were 12 yrs old..swinging on the swings in your back yard right at the time the movie, Mary Poppins came out! That MOVIE brings back those memories! This year truly has been like no other, but I hope you all are staying SAFE and truly treasuring each and every day with your family and loved ones! God bless you all! Thinking of all the times and memories we shared definitely brings a smile to my face! Please say hi to everybody for me! Hugs and kisses to all!
