March 6, 2024

My heart goes out to Karen, Connie, Mark and their families for their loss.
I spent many hours at her home growing up. She and Mr. Smock always made me feel like part of the family.
I had the pleasure of seeing her, Karen, Jeff and the family on visits when Karen came home and my mom, daughter and grandson got to all be together.
I will always have a deep feeling of appreciation for everything she and Mr. Smock both did for me to make me feel loved and special.

Much love
Jane Pierce Tibbetts and family
