    Mark, Barbara, and Kathy, Your mom was truly a special person. She always seemed to have a smile on her face and good thoughts in her heart. She had a wonderful long life and three great kids. We should all be that lucky.

    Galetti family. I’m sorry about the loss of your mom. She was such a nice lady. I still drive through her neighborhood going to my son’s house and remember the fun times we had there. We are losing a great generation of people. Take care.
