Dear Chris:
We are so sorry for your loss. When we lived on Roosevelt Avenue and had our children; your Mom was a constant visitor & always brought some treat over for the kids to enjoy and a book(s) was always in her hand-sometimes she would read to the kids - they enjoyed that. She stressed the importance of always reading a good book! She was a great neighbor and friend to our family. We hope your memories will get you through this tough time. Our memories of her (and the rest of your Aunts!) will be with us forever. Our best to you always~
