Helene (we called her Helen) was my favorite neighbor on "C" Street from 1961-1967. We always had coffee together more than we probably should have. Tommy and our Jeff were the best buddies. Tommy was a year or two older but was like a big brother to Jeff. Judy you were the best big sister to Jeff and we are so sorry for the loss of your Mother. She was a dear special lady.
From your old neighbors (Lowell and Norma Houchin)
