Jeannie,
I will always remember the times we shared, especially while growing up when I was young during the summers and holidays in Ohio. Whether it was hanging out with me during the summer days, going to bingo, the bandstand on Fridays, the Lancaster festival, your amazing salmon patties, you're cooking in general, your love and compassion, you telling me "you're cute". I will miss you. I love you! Love and peace always.
