Dearest Gordie and Jeanne - it broke my heart yesterday when I read that Curt had died. Curt had as tender a heart as anyone I have known. He was always so sweet to me and has always held a very special place in my heart. I remember as clearly as yesterday seeing him for the first time on Ramona the summer you four had moved there before school started. Cheryl and I were on the way to the Boardwalk of course. Seeing that Lisa died a week later made the ache even greater. Jeanne my heart has ached for you for so so many years since the death of your precious little mother. I do not know how you have been able to put one foot in front of the other. She has been gone so long and you were so horribly young to have lost your best friend. I read the loving tribute you wrote about your Dad's late wife. It was beautiful. I am so very sorry for yet another loss. Life gets so very sad at this age as we lose so many we have loved in life. All my love to both of you always. Donna Lynne Hailey

Now you are resting peacefully with your Mom and my Mom who were best friends. I remember fun times with all your family 2 houses down growing up. May you rest in peace. Sherry Wright and Perry Whittaker, Ray Wright
