    We are sorry to hear of your mother’s end of life. If we had seen the notice sooner we would have come to the service.

    We live in Young, AZ now and it is a three hour drive to the old neighborhood in Phoenix.

    We were your parents neighbors for many years and we loved them very much. They were a nice couple and nice to be around.

    We attended Flossie’s funeral in October and Sam’s funeral in Sept. 2012. So four of our wonderful neighbor’s are getting together in heaven and smiling down on us.
