Dear Sandy I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. I tell my granddaughters Sadie and Cashleigh how were were walking down State St. headed for the Den Restaurant and she whacked us both on the behind and told us to pay attention to our posture. Will never forget that I still have good posture. Love Marsha
Dee was always so patient and kind to me, I ran into her about 12 years ago in Aldis, we hugged and cried and talked of her son Roger. She was a dedicated mother and great cook. (I learned about real butter and how to can sweet corn from her!) Every time I see a Christmas cactus I think of Dee , she had an amazing green thumb! , So sorry we lost touch after she moved from Waterford. Glad she was with her family. She will always have a special place in my heart. God bless you Sandy and all your family.
