Dear Judy and family,
So sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I will always remember your Mom's kindness. She once took me to Washingon Dc and Ft. Belvoir, VA to see you graduate from "boot camp". It was a wonderful time in my life. We spent many happy hours with you and your family in your home in Penacook. Take care, God bless. Thanks for the memories. Carol LaValley Bonin, Hudson, FL
