    I am so very sorry for your loss. I lived at 176 Valley Green Dr, with my then husband Bob Storey. I remember many good times together with Bob and Betty and the girls. My current husband and I are tentatively planning to be away 1/30/15, so I probably will not be able to attend the memorial service to see you, but I wanted to acknowledge and send condolences to all the family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
