Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • Oh My God. We are both in shock. My husband was searching the obits this morning. What a loss. Barb was our neighbor for the longest time until she sold her house. We lived at 381. Oh my God. I would see her drive by our house almost every morning on her way to and from work and she would wave. I was wondering why I hadn't seen her lately. Our deepest condolences to her daughter and the entire family. She was taken so young. I will never forget our laughs we had over the years. God Bless. - Posted by: Wilma and David Chartrand (friend and neighbor) on: Aug 30, 2016
