All: I am sending this condolence to you for all of the children of Winifred Ann Timins Weiss, (Debbie, myself, Roderick, Lea, Christopher and Frederick). We are very saddened to hear of Vera’s passing. I have fond personal memories of the time when my mother and I visited with that Vera and Jack in Easton. After a long flight from Richmond both Mother and I were cold, tired and hungry! I remember the mini pizzas that Vera made for us upon our arrival – boy were they good! In the future I hope to share more memories. Your Mother and Father will not be forgotten! From all of us, Love, Eric Weiss
