Betty, We just want you to know how very sorry we are for your loss. You and Walt have been the best neighbors anyone could wish for. I remember not long after you moved in, Walt came over and told us “The boss” had asked him to vacuum, but he couldn’t get it to work and asked if we knew anything about vacuum cleaners. My husband went over to help him and after trying many different things he discovered it was an outlet where the wall switch had to be flipped on when something was plugged in to the top. Walt seemed relieved that he could do his chore as you had asked him to. We feel privledged to have met him, and thought highly of him. If you need anything at all or if you just want some company in the days ahead please don’t hesitate to come next door and get us. Again we are deeply saddened by your loss.
Our prayers are with you,
Catherine & David, Elisa, & Rylee, Julie and Elijah Claybaugh
