We lived around the corner from your family when they lived on Kent Road. Your Mother cared for our baby between my going to work evenings and Bob coming home from his day job. We were new parents and reluctant to leave our precious one. We were so pleased when your Mom agreed to be the care giver. We admired her gracious care of our baby and her reassurance to us. Your Dad also worked in the Grain Exchange, as did Bob, so he gave him a ride to work. So in those early days our paths crossed in friendship and trust. To us, your Mom was special. Her acceptance and open, friendly manner was so appreciated. May you find peace in the memories. In appreciation for this opportunity, Bob and Muriel Kenyon. - Posted by: Bob and Muriel Kenyon (Friends from many years ago) on: Mar 20, 2016
