    When I first joined Fairport Historical Club, this lovely woman came up to me with a big smile, introduced herself, and welcomed me. She was so genuinely warm, and such a loving person. We have missed her presence at meetings since her illness.

    I am very sorry for your loss. I have many memories of your mother including as a scout leader, watching the fourth of July parades and so much more. Our parents enjoyed many happy times together. Your mom was a lovely woman, inside and out..
