To Don & Karen Dugan and the Dugan family:

We became aware of your Mother's recent passing today. She and your Dad had a long and fruitful life together. I especially remember the good times that our families had at your summer cottage in Lake George, and can attest to you Mother's good cooking. We also looked forward to the package of baked goodies that your Dad would send each Christmas when your family still owned and operated Dugan Bros. Bakery. May God bless you and your family in this time of bereavement and celebration of your Mother's life.
