Susan, will you please share by condolences to your Dad. He was one of my brother Larry's best friends growing up. Actually my parents were old friends of your grandparents, and all of us kids grew up as friends. I will pass this on to my brothers. Again, I am so sorry your Dad has gone through this twice.

I knew Mary in the early 90s. I worked next door to where she lived and she welcomed me into her life and was so loving and supportive. We enjoyed fishing, playing games and garage sale shopping together. She was a wonderful woman and I am truly blessed to have known her. I'm so sorry for your great loss.
