Kathy, Maureen, and all of the Kraus family - my deep sympathy on the loss of Edward. Aunt Mary and I were friends for many, many years, going back to the 50's. I spent many hours at 47 Wingate. Enjoyed seeing Grandpa and Grandma often. Aunt Mary talked a lot about her nieces and nephews and the family get togethers, with good food and the games (hide the bunny). You must have some wonderful memories. God Bless you all. Peg Mergenhagen
