This was posted on my Facebook page earlier this
afternoon. It is from Joanne Salem. Joanne's mom was Helen
Peddicord and they go way back with our grandmother and even Grandma
Roughan. Joanne's sisters, Merl and Marcella, were significantly
older than Joanne and Judy (her sister) and both were very dear friends of my
mom's. I don't remember ever not knowing the Peddicords.
"My childhood
memories are filled with the joy of the Scott household. The minute I entered
the front door I felt an amazing comfort. I could tell your Mom and THERESA all
my troubles and they would listen with kindness and love. I loved sleeping
upstairs and hearing Theresa's footsteps as she approached to check on me and
Judy. I am sure all the precious Irish ladies are in heaven now celebrating
THERESA's arrival. Mom, Margaret, Judy, Merl, Marcella, and all of your Irish
angels. Your Mom was at the front of the pack!! I thank them all for the love
and memories."
From me as I can't quite figure out why the font has changed and I can't fix it.)
I don't remember ever
not knowing the Peddicords. I know that Joanne and Judy stayed overnight
at our house during the week when they were going to Loretto. They lived
out in the valley which was about 30 miles away. However, in those
days 30 miles was a lot.
Our wonderful aunt
Teresa and my mom always opened up our home friends who became like family.
And that what we always learned about the importance of family and
friendships. So many wonderful memories.
