Dear Marilyn,
I grew up next door to your Mom, Pauline, Helen, Carolyn & Ansie.
I, many times, recall the fun we all had as neighbors. I knew your Father, Ray. He sold the house at 2501 for us. Your parents were such great friends..
My thoughts and prayers are with you,
Karen Kanekeberg Britton

Marilyn, I didn't know your Mom well, but I loved your dad, Ray. He helped me so much and I always liked his sense of humor & his yearly calendars. I know you will miss them both. God bless, Julie Natale
