Cindy, Randy and your families,
We were so saddened to hear of Marie’s passing. I immediately was flooded of great memories with Sweet Marie and Bad Uncle Ben on Mill Street and times with you Cindy and Randy. Whether it was playing in the backyard or laying out our Halloween haul in the front room it was always fun.
Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I suppose we should be reassured that your Mom is reunited with your Dad and a hearty “Yahoo” was the greeting.
Our sincere condolences and sympathy.
