"Dear Ron & Gina, My deepest sympathy. I can't tell you the memories I have of playing at your house as a kid. I guess they must be some of my first real memories and it feels like it was just yesterday. My heart goes out to you and I hope your loving memories will help you through the days to come. With love, Robyn (Otteman) Bingham"

"Dear Gina and family, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Your mother was a great lady and I have MANY memories of her. I too remember playing at your house and her always being there, going to DC for the spelling bee. At least now she is at peace. My thought are with you. Carrie"
