Sorry to hear of Chris's passing. We had many good times, playing cards and visiting, when Sandy and Bob were just toddlers. Unfortunately we lost touch after they moved to Middletown. Wayne and I worked together for years at Xerox . Val and Debby were teachers at Sacred Heart school in New Haven.
We are very sorry for tour loss.

So very sorry to hear of her passing. Great neighbors and memories on West Dayton. Chris and I spent happy times together with our kids at our pools. Sincere condolences to her family.
