I was a little girl when we lived in a apartment on Center Street. I used to play with Debbie. That was a long time ago. We all moved on but sometimes the sweetest memories are those of our childhood. May God Bless you all. I lost my Mom over a year ago, I feel peace knowing she is in a better place. And although I miss her, she no longer has pain or worry. Hope the same notion will bring you peace ,too.
Sorry to hear of Mr. Longs death he will be missed
