Dear Stan and Steve and Family,
I just wanted to say im sorry about the loss of your Mother, I know what a heartbreak that is.
Its been awhile since i talked to her, but we had a nice chat.
I have very fond memories of our years together on Beechwood, we had some great times!!!!! I do remember when Susan would say STANLEY or STEVEN !!!!!! in a loud voice it was time to go home!!!!!!!!
I sometimes drive by Beechwood and remember all those times, its a mix of emotions some sad but for the most part happy ones.
Please know you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Hard times ahead, just hold tight to the thought that it will get easier.
Keep your Faith
Love you all still even after all these years!!!!

We are so lucky to have lived across the street from Susan for the past 17 years. I have fond memories of sitting on her porch on warm summer days, sharing cobbler, and keeping up with the neighborhood happenings. She was always welcoming to my autistic brother, Michael, who regularly stopped by her porch for a soda during his yearly visits. And I am grateful for the many hours my children spent at her house playing with Tyler and Emily when they were little. It is hard to think of her not living across the street. Megan, Erin, Dave and I are grateful to have known her and Stan, Steve, Emily, Tyler, and Julia, our prayers are with you. The Baileys

Stan and Steve,
My thoughts are with you today in the passing of your mother. There are so many memories of your mother and ours since we kids go all the way back to first grade! I remember so well the many summers at the pool with our moms delivering us to shivering swimming lessons and picnic lunches under the sheds. Or, sitting beside the dance floor while we all learned to Square Dance at Harvest House in Kenilworth. Of course, there were the high school years too. I’m thinking there’s a good reunion going on now with Sue and MaryRuth!
Keep your memories close to your heart!
Sincerely,
Bonnie
