It was an honor to know Gabby. I was lucky enough to be invited for a lunch of potato-leek soup at the Mud Lake cottage on more than one occasion. My condolences to Tom and the rest of family.

I have so many, many wonderful memories of dinners at the Eschweiler's house, visits to their North Lake home, and an unforgetable summer in Germany with them. Mrs. Eschweiler was a warm, funny, welcoming person who will be missed but remembered very fondly. My condolences to Mr. Eschweiler, Liesel, Ace, and their families.
