Ken,Bonny,Dustin&Dylan WamboldtYour parents lived across the street from us the entire time they had their home in 16th Ave. Our family loved them and quickly became close neighbors and friends. We are very sorry we were unable to attend Gloria’’s service unfortunately my brother had knee replacement surgery that day and I have been staying with him. Every time I look across the street I think of your parents, especially this time of year they decorated so beautifully and we were the ones that reaped the benefits. I can still see Gloria maintaining her beautiful lawn. We enjoyed all the baked goodies she so enjoyed sharing. They were so dear to all of us. I am sorry I lost contact with you Kathy I never had a ‘phone number after she moved. We are very sorry for your loss it’s so hard to lose our parents.
