To all the Felice Family and Extended Family
Gordon and I want you to know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. Ida was one of the nicest ladies we had the privilege of knowing. When we would see her at Church she always reminded us she was going to make it to be 100 years old. Always enjoyed seeing her at Jon & Jill's house. Know she will be missed by all of you. We are in Texas for the winter, but you will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Hugs to All of You Karen and Gordon
