Lois and I always loved your mom and dad. You were the best neighbors! Our children loved playing with you guys and exploring your house on Paco. Our prayers are with you and Paul.
Hi Mia
It’s Gary. So sorry for you and your families loss. She was a dear and lovely friend and her presence always brought warmth and beauty and sparkle.
She is missed but we know it was the time for her to leave us.
I’ve already missed her.
We six children will always remember all the great times we shared.
