I’m sad to see that another class member has left us. I attended a few of the class reunions with my Mama and got to know the classmates. Again, I am sorry for your loss.

  4. The Viverette’s were great friends to our parents. They were regular visitors to them and it meant so much as our parents aged. Deepest condolences.
