We are so sorry on the death of both your parents. We are the Bailey’s who lived next door to the Sittler’s on Calif Ct. and our Denise was the same age as Cindy (I think) and they would play together either there or at our house I particularly remember one time when gum got stock in Denise’s hair and, of course, we had to cut it out. At one time I would see them walking at Gateway. Memories are so important.
