The Cherry Avenue crop is thinning these days, not dropping - but harvested now in due course, unlike the premature pickings that rocked our burgeoning next-door-family down through the years.
John and Elfie contributed generously to that bountiful harvest; seeds planted and transplanted, nature-nurtured, crops matured and memories preserved in each bit of gravel on that road now long-paved. Maple Grove would have been extinct years ago, if not for pioneers like Elfie.
We grieve your Mother with you old friends, with Elfie's old friend our Mother, to whom she passed the torch at nearly 99.
Receive our love and affection,
Susan, Tom & Bill
