As next door neighbors for 17 years, Ginny and Moe became surrogate parents and grandparents to the Poiriers. Laura, Alison, and Philip frequently knocked on their door for a visit and some treats which were always offered. Summertime meant swimming in their pool until we had to get our own pool because the kids enjoyed it so much. On Christmas eve the kids could open one gift and they always chose the Caron's gift.Ginny made for them ornaments, lamps, banks, and quilts. Ginny always gave from her heart and she holds a special place in our hearts. We send our sincere sympathy to the family for the loss of a great woman but she is now home with Moe whom she loved dearly.

Mrs Caron was a wonderful wonderful woman. She was my neighbor and second "grandmother" for 16 years when my family lived next door. She always loved seeing us, and would happily accept our "bouquets" or dandelions or Indian Paintbrushes that we picked from her yard- and in return always give us treats. She was truly a great person. My condolences.
