Dear Cindy and Billy,
We are so sad to hear of your Dad’s passing.
Mom and Dad have wonderful memories of your parents and also of you two growing up. I was thankful for getting to know them when I made the move to the South Shore.
I enjoyed looking at recipes with them and appreciated phone calls and visits and especially thankful for the ‘by chance meetings and get togethers’. It was wonderful getting to know cousins and to have a personal knowledge of great people when stories of bygone days are being told.
Our sincere condolences.
Ed, Marion, Elizabeth, Emily Backman
