Dear Frank. Drew and Diane,

We are so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. When we were growing up she was like another mother to us. We have so many great memories of her, especially all of us spending the day at Millwoods, and just hanging out in the back yard. She was a a great Mom and a wonderful neighbor. My mother treasured her friendship. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Kathy and Carolyn Sampeck
