Nancy,
Our family was saddened to hear about your mother. We had the priviege of knowing her when we all lived in Gales Ferry, CT and were members of St Andrew Presbyterian Church in Groton. She was a special person and we will remember her with love.
You are in our prayers,
Nancy Warmath

Nancy,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Aunt Betty was a very special lady and we feel fortunate to have been part of her life. We are so glad we were able to see her on our recent trip to Seattle. She was in good spirits and was always interested in how everyone else was doing. That’s the way we will always remember her. To Nancy and Ken: May God Bless you both.
