Such a wonderful mother and neighbor. My sympathies to Ernie and my love to all of those great Barrett kids - Lots of great memories of watching you all grow up. Of course I have even more memories of Tom because of all the many things that you and my son Jack shared.......some of which are better forgotten. But you both grew up to be wonderful men and Jack sends his sympathy and prayers. You are all in my prayers too.
