Our sympathy goes out to all the Firebaugh children. I will always remember your folks and all you kids when you lived on the Kennedy farm. God bless.

Norma (and John) lived down the street from us in Lafayette. She was so nice and reminded me a lot of my mom. It was sad when they moved. I loved watching them in the yard and whenever they got out.
