So many memories come back when I think of us all so many years ago.
All of the kids that our parents took under their wings. Our families spent many years under each others roofs. Our parents were so young. They are good memories.
Marian's door was always open to us.
My deepest sympathies.

Memah was a wonderful woman. I still sleep under a blanket she bought me when I was 10 or 11. I'll miss her. My heart goes out to all who loved her.
