To the Bourque family,I had the privilege of being your Mom and Dad's neighbor for over 30 years. I enjoyed saying hello as I walked by, bringing my boys by each Halloween, chatting about our shared interest in cats, and exchanging Christmas cards each year. I was saddened to hear of your Mom's passing. I'll always remember her kind spirit and friendly smile.
