Cameron & Jill- I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am a long, lost cousin in Oregon (Carol Claire Crowley Hanlon's daughter). I remember meeting you only once in Boston when I was 5 years old but I remember my mother spoke often about your mother and how she admired her spunk and flare. Word of your mother's death reached me from Frank Callahan. My thoughts are with you during this sad time.
