Cecile, I was so pleased to have a few moments to chat with you at Mom’s memorial service in Bridgewater. I have so many memories of playing with you and Ferne when June and I would be visiting your grandparents who lived nextdoor to your family home in Westfield. Although Lois’s last years were challenging for her health wise, she was so fortunate to have your love and that of her grandchildren. My thoughts are with you all at this difficult time.
