To Mrs. Wiltrout’s Family:
So sorry to hear about your loss. You have my prayers and thoughts. I have and will always think of her. As I grew up next door to her, I have many fond memories of talking with her on the front porch and during some visits getting fresh plums or some ice cream. I always remember her smile at school during lunch break and talking with her while in line for lunch. I will miss her very much.
