Dear Sherry and Greg: I was so sorry to hear of your mother's death. As former neighbours she and your Dad were a big part of our neighbourhood community. Dennis and I couldn't have wished for better neighbours and friends. Your Mum always had a ready smile and friendly word. My sincere sympathy to all the family. Morag
