I will always remember you. I enjoyed renting a home from you and talking to you about Irises. I wish I never moved!

Pat and George were our first friends when we were married in 1958. We moved next door on Huber Street and I learned how to cook, sew, garden, and care for children from Pat. Clay learned tools, carpentry, mechanics, and home repairs from George. They were an amazing couple! I send my love to Gene and Lynette and the family.
