"I was fortunate enough to meet Harry and Ethel at my parents Senior Citizen Club at St. Jerome Church. I had the pleasure of learning that they had been married well over 60 plus years! One of the things that I most admired of Harry and Ethel was seeing how much love they still had for one another. I truly enjoyed hearing the story of how they met while skating!! I only wish I could have heard more of their stories! My heart goes out to their family and loved ones!! Never forget that the ones we love the most live forever in our hearts!! Wendy"
In loving memory of
