John, Scott and families
Sincere condolences on the loss of your mother! We lost Dad on December 16th and it was an overwhelming sadness during the holidays having that connection to your childhood gone. I picture your Mother in heaven with the “Saturday night gang” dancing her heart out with your Dad! She truly was a very lovely lady…and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to know her!
Karen (and Evelyn too….Mom misses those bygone days and will have to wait a little longer till she too can dance again with Dad)
