    I have so many memories of her and Jack too. She will always have a special place in my heart. For many many years I was always at their house, if you needed to find me that’s where I was. She was so good to me, took me in as though as I was one of her own, like a daughter she never had she would say, than I would say, like a grandmother I never had I would say. Oh the good times we had. Back to the lake swimming was our favourite thing to do. I’m sending my sincere condolences to all of the family during this hard time!
