Dear Eyre family; I've fond memories of spending time at the family home on Rte. 532,( just heading out of Mogadore), My mother, Mary Alice Rauber, was a close friend of Audrey's, and I recall (as a child) the grief we all experienced, losing Audrey at such a young age! May God Bless you all and give you HIS peace and comfort!! I'm glad for all my wonderful memories of time spent with the Eyre family! In Christian Love, Carolyn (Rauber) Burns and family.

Trisha & Rich,
I am so so sad to hear that Cal has passed. I have such great memories of your family. I absolutely loved your dad beyond words. He was such a great man who raised wonderful kids. I remember Cal and Rich driving Trish and I to band practice all the time. Both boys were always so sweet and so much fun! Later I had the privelege of interacting with Cal on Fire Dept endeavors when I was on the Suffield Fire Dept. Just a wonderful family and I am so very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
