Dear Tom and Cathy,
What a shock to open the paper and see that your Mom had died. She was so special in so many ways. All the fun Christmases, Bar-B-Ques on the patio and in the rib house. Not to mention the trips to Lil Switzerland & Camp Blanding. Such wonderful memories. Our entire childhoods...the Curtans and the Gilchrists always. My deepest sympathies to you both and your families. Aunt June is in an assisted living facility with Alzeihemers. I doubt that she will make to funeral or visiting at Craigs. But know that you are in our hearts and prayers and we will miss Aunt Jane deeply. Please feel free to contact me @ [email protected]. I have some photos you might like to have. Love always to you both,
Ann (Gilchrist) Dixon
