Barb, Ray and family
My heart truly goes out to you all. I am so sorry for your profound loss.
Some of my fondest memories are of growing up in the Chesterfield area. Parents like you, George and Betty, Ernie and Virginia, Mary, Ellen, Wilma, Elizabeth, my mom and dad (Kate & Bill) and so many more turned out some really great kids. Who somehow turned out to be really great adults.
Jeff, Charis, Mary Catherine, Mary Jane, Linda, Edna, Nancy, Sandy, Eddie, Linda G. Myra, Fred, Helen, Ramona, Sherman and Harry and especially me -I was a handful, and others. Were all so blessed to have people like all of you pulling for us and steering us down life's pathways.
God bless you all in your time of grief and may you find comfort in each others love.
