Dear Carol and Family: What great memories I have of your Mom making us sandwiches back in the Payson Park days and most recently when I visited you in Belmont. We got back to your mom's house from a long walk around Belmont on a very hot day and, what a surprise, she made us sandwiches! (delicious ck. salad if I remember correctly). I'm so glad I visited her in early December, what a treat. She'll always be remembered fondly and with love. Requiescat in Pace, Joan.
Love, Mary Lu Burke Petty
