Dear Harry and family. I am so saddened to learn of the death of your dear mother. Please accept my sincere condolences. She was a wonderful person with a great sense of humor. That is hard to come by. I know that God will be smiling when he meets her at the gates of heaven. She sure did make others smile.

Larry Sr., Larry Jr., Adam and families---So sorry to hear of Aunt Peg's passing. She was always fun to be around when we made the 'long drive' to Mingo to visit you all. I will never forget the story of her being nice to the hobo and then he left markings on her front porch for other hobos. Truly a genuine and classy lady!! Love and prayers to you all!! xoxo
