    I am sorry to hear of Mrs Hamiltons passing although I did not know her well but her daughter is a wonderful friend of my family.

    I cannot remember Aunt Ruby without a smile on her face.
    Christmas in Byron was always a special time. I know Uncle Ted has been patiently waiting for her and I am happy they are together again.
