I grew up in Lawrenceville, was one of the early volunteer squad members for what is now the German Twp FD with Carl and delivered the Spfld News Sun every morning to Tiny and Carl. So sadden by her passing and sorry I have not stayed in touch. She was always a bright smile in my day as a kid growing up and learning how neighbors should be. It is a remarkable family you have. Please accept my condolences. Neil (Kauffman) Arthur, son of Judith (Valley/Kauffman) Arthur

Sue, your mom gave me the example of who I want to be. I loved every moment I spent with her as a teenager and young adult coming over with my own children.

I haven't seen Tiny in many years but always enjoyed her and Carl at the Fair and when they had their food booth at the horse shows. They were both very special people.
