Dear Keith, Rodney, Michael, Brenda, and dearest Donna
So long ago we lived in Newside, yet the memories are still so vivid! Our Sam, the mayor, hanging onto Red and usually winning with a mouthful of red hair. Sweet Hup, always smiling and so in love with you kids. And the "battles" between Victor and Ruth. They loved to argue, but they did love each other. You're a great family and I'm happy with my memories of how much your Mom and Dad truly loved all of you and how proud they were of each of you. They still all live in us, all those we have lost. Peggy

Ruth touched my life in a very special way with her humor and no nonsense view of life. She helped me greatly while I was going through chemo. I'll miss her greatly.

Mammy,
I see reminders of you every day. Friday I saw bubble gum ice cream at the ice cream shop at work, and today I saw the game Phase 10. Each time I see these reminders, I just smile and think of the wonderful memories we shared. Miss you and love you.
