Moscow, ID Monday, June 24, 2024 Scott and Deb,So sorry to hear of Aunt Mary Ann passing. She was a wonderful person. She had a great life. She always had a smile on her face, even when the Norwood twins got us in trouble when we were little. :)
She is now with Chuck, Irene, Virgil, Dad and Mom. I am sure they are having a great time.
You are both in my thoughts and prayers.
