Dean and I wanted to express our deepest sympathy. We both have fond memories of visiting her and Aunt Polly and Aunt Catherine when we were younger. We would sit in their living and kitchen and listen to a lot of stories. We always looked forward to visiting Harvard Street. Love, Gloria Hatcher and Dean Bucuvalas
