Dear Penny, What a lovely photo of your mother. That is exactly how we remember her. She was always so pleasant and welcoming as was your father. You and your sons were their pride and joy. Our boys referred to them fondly as "Cap and Gram" and they still do after so many years. Penny we send you and your family our sincerest condolences. Much love, Mary Ann and Murray Kucherawy
