To Antoinette’s family,
My sincere condolences on your Mom’s passing. I was you Mom’s neighbor for several when I resided at 11 Bonny Lane. Her and I had great chats and she and Bob were the nicest neighbors anyone could ever wish to have. The last time I visited friends in Kingston I stopped by for a visit and found the same, kind, cheerful woman I had known for several years. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Rest in peace Antoinette.
