Dear Pat and Dennis,
So sorry to hear from Mom that your mom has passed away. The photo reminds me of her vivacious spirit and energy that I remember from visits to your home in Ilderton many years ago. Best of all I remember her taking us to see Gone with the Wind at a drive-in, and crying along with us kids in all the right spots. She was a memorable woman!
