What wonderful memories we have as a family living next to Al and Adele. We were so young and they took us under their wing as our family grew. We could never have asked for better people to share our fence with those years. Sympathy to Allan who was so good to Katie and Patrick. Our thoughts and prayers to your family Adele. Love you always. Mary and Dick Teyro
