Although I am a few years younger than Toots, I have a lot of great memories from when when were kids growing up in the northeast end of Canton. Later I would visit her and Dave at their apartment in Canton South. Late in life I moved just a couple blocks away from them in North Canton and remained in touch with them. A lot of great family memories. Rest In Peace Toots.
