"Our sympathy to your family. Sammi was our next door neighbor since 1984, she was a wonderful person, friend and great neighbor. She would alway bring over treats after her day of entertaining friends, they were always so good. She shared her vegtables in the summer from her garden, always a treat. Tom and I will miss her being right next door."
