I met your Mom on the way to Canada. We had made a quick stop at her home before hitting the road. She made me feel welcome the short time I was there. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sadness.

My thoughts and prayers are with all the family. I am a long time friend and neighbor. I lived at 1822 Hickman. I remember your first home Dean, when you and Georgia were married. The garage between the Rowley's and the Botsford's. Georgia looked just like her Mother. I wished we had kept in touch thru the years. I many good memories of Georgia, and all her family.
I sent a sympathy card at the time Bernie passed. Addressed to the Antique store. It was returned.
With sincere sympathy,
Esther Rowley Ritchie
