Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Charles, So sorry to hear of your Mother’s death. I know she was very special to you. I saw her picture in the paper and immediately recognized her. I remember her as a very happy, positive person. I know she will be missed. I hope that you are well and that things aren’t getting on top of you emotionally. I won’t be able to make her funeral tomorrow (my own Father died a day before your Mom, I have been off from work for the last 2 weeks. Tomorrow is my first day back). If you have some time, maybe we could get some coffee or a coke and catch up. I live in Derby and my home phone is 788-7069 and my cell phone is 209-3384. It would be great to hear from you. If you can’t, please send me an email and we can catch up electronically. My is email is rkezar@swbell.net. I saw J. Ed one time (in Texas) after our group disbanded. Have seen Leslie a few times – she lives around here. Never have seen Betsey or Gayle. Your old disco friend, Roger Kezar.
Lucia was a wonderful, kind, memorable women. I am so lucky to have her as my great aunt. I have many wonderful childhood memories from her, ones I wish my kids would of been able to experience and cherish. I will always remember the first time I ate Mexican Bread, it was with my great aunt Lucia and every time I saw her, she would go get me my own bag and sit in the kitchen with me and let me eat however pieces I wanted. She was a beautiful women, with a beautiful heart. She will be forever missed. We love you and are sorry we were not there for your final days. Love the Bigley-Lopez Family
Charles, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time of loss.
Rest in peace. You were a sweet lady and I know Ralph and Charles will miss you greatly.
