Bonnie, Laurel, Bill and Mike, Hearing of the passing of your mom brought back many memories of visiting at the farm with you all and the friendship our moms had. I remember one Halloween party that Eleanor had and how much fun we had, especially feeling the peeled grape (eyes) during a ghost tale. May you have many rich memories to share in the days to come. Fondly Jen (Thompson) Soper
