Ron and Family,
Many years have gone by since I've seen any of you..But I do remember the time your mom and my mom spent together walking, talking and Patriot Park days....
"Miss Edie" would invite my girls and I to do Easter crafts at her church.
Another good time...
Wishing all of you peace during this most difficult time..

I'll never forget the Sunday dinners you'd lovingly prepare for all of us on kid weekends, and the ruthlessness at which you played cards. Thanks for the stories, thanks for the memories, thanks for sharing embarrassing baby pictures of my honey, and thanks for your precious time. Rest in peace, Mama Wolfe...rest in peace
