Mrs. Carpenter, thank you for your kind heart and for always opening your home to all of us from Clark Ave. I have always remember the sound of your Cracker Jacks whistle. I do remember our last visit several years ago and the sweet sound of your voice calling out my name. Thank you for not forgetting me as well. Heaven holds a special place for our mothers, so when you reunite with mine and the others from our neighborhood..tell them we still them remember too. God Bless You.. Danny, Jimmy and Diane, May you hold your mother's love in your presence forever.
