John, I'm so sorry of hearing of your Mom's passing. Aunt Dee Dee called me to let me know. I always loved Aunt Bunny, she used to babysit me and Lisa and we thought she was so beautiful! She was always kind and loving and just plan fun! May God's love shine down on you at this most difficult time. She's an angel in Heaven! You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Bunny I am so grateful for our Scott High Class 1962 high school memories. We were sorority sisters in the OFA AFO sorority (All For One and One for All). We shared some really good, fun times. You helped us locate classmates for our 40th class reunion and I spent many an hour on the phone with you - I will cherish those phone calls. RIP my friend.
