Dear Maureen, Jack, Terry and Eileen, We are saddened to hear about your mom's passing. She was always so much fun to be around, especially when she was telling Maureen and I what we should NOT be doing to stay out of trouble. I will always remember the camping trips, the bonfires in the backyard and the Christmases we shouldn't have been on the roads.... I will never again think of Matrimonial Slice without thinking of your mom and smiling. She did make it the Best! Love to you all and know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love Terry and Ken - Posted by: Terry-Lynne Hause (McPherson) (friend) on: Jan 28, 2015
