Keith, I have such fond memories of your mom from my time at the Jr. High. Like so many young ladies of that time, your mom taught me how to sew and I still have the apron that I made in her class. She was a wonderful lady. My thoughts are with you.

Dear Keith, Diane, Jessica and Greg,
I was fortunate to have Alice as a mentor when I first arrived at NCUJHS as a young teacher. We had some great conversations and she was always there to lend a hand. I was fortunate enough to see her when we performed for the Holiday at Michaud Manor. Both of our thoughts are with you.

Keith,Diane,Janice and Family,
I was saddened to hear the passing of your mother, grandmother and great grandmother. When I think of her I will always remember her smile. I especially enjoyed her friendship when I first moved to Derby Line and joined the Canusa group. Unfortunatley, in recent years our paths have not crossed very often. But, when the occassion did arise she always brightened it with that same smile and positive thoughts. Such a loss to you the family, the community and the world. With sincere sympathy,
Ruthy Joseph
