HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDY!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDY!

This picture was taken YEARS ago, my guess is, we were pretty YOUNG!!!

WAY BACK THEN we took swimming lesson at the Tunbridge Pool. This is a picture of (left to right) my sister Rose-Marie, me, (Colleen) and Candis Tuller. (better known as Candy) My earliest memories of a good friend go back to Candy. We attended Tunbridge Central School together and South Royalton High School. Not only are we friends but we are also cousins. (our grandmothers were sisters) Over the years she has been a constant source of support and love to our family. Here are a few memories that I have of Candy.... and I hope she'll forgive me for this post but I HAD to wish her a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

*going to school in Tunbridge (Robbie Howe was our best friend)

*getting to play Barbies with her when Mom went for groceries on Sat morning, what a treat!

*the playground (teeter-totter, less said the better)

*Miss Hill (Mrs. Dodge) and Mrs. Tewksbury, our favorite teachers
