Dear Karen & Bill
I am sorry I did not know sooner that your mother died. I knew Cass for many years because of her friendship with Helen Burns and my best friend, Arlene Willis. I would often see her at the butcher shop, church and on the porch. She was a lovely woman, a good neighbor and lots of fun as you may remember at a few of the Toronto parties. You have many good memories to share. May she rest in peace.
