Hi Laurie - Our sincerest condolences - believe it or not I think of your mom often. We certainly had good times and warm feelings in your parents beautiful home. Your parents even introduced me to railroad tracks cake (?)(should I thank them for that?) Really I will always remember her for her lovely face and warmth that just radiated everytime I entered your home. Love to all, especially, Errol who used to drive us to the beach in his convertible. Lesley (Frankel)
