Friends since 2nd grade, I lived on Oak Ave.and would ride my bike up New Ave. to the big white house on Washington St. Fond memories of the ducks and geese that chased me biking up her driveway. They were a little scary! I remember seeing her dad plowing and working the fields on many days! We had alots of fun together! I'm glad we got to chat back in December. She will be missed! My thoughts are with her family.

Staring at each other across the street in 1960 something. Sunday rides with mr and mrs crouch and ice cream cones. School. Her wedding day. Parties at each others homes.

Barbara started 1st grade with me and was in my class every year through the 6th grade. She was always the kind and quiet one . I also lived behind her off of Mullins Lane. Such a good person and classmate

Amanda, Erik and Ethan, we are thinking of you through the loss of your mom/ gamma! My first memory of your sweet mama was when Stephen and Ethan were in 2nd grade Mrs. Rotundis class for a class party and your Sweet Mama was the life of the party and had so many great ideas for the kids to do while at the party. She was funny, always had a smile and was always present for you (amanda and ethan) at school and any other times! She was a special lady! Hugs from us !
