Debby....I have such fond memories of your mom and dad when you lived on Frederick Street. Walking you to school and then going to meet you after lunch and your dad dropping us off at Johnson School before he brought your mom back to the Mohawk Gift Shop. I remember vividly her Hummel collection and being just fascinated watching her knit. You were so lucky to have her for so long. I know you'll miss her but hang on to all those memories! My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Fondly,
Gerry
