To the Musser Family, This is Carol (Kirchner) Vere and I grew up across the street from Mary and Harold on First Street and they were just the nicest neighbors..I remember Pam well. I heard from my brother, Ron, that Joan Bireley, had passed away maybe 2 weeks ago and was looking for information about her obit since Jaon was very close to the Kirchner family, and now see that Mary Musser has also passed away.
She had given me very fond memories as a kid growing up in the neighborhood and my sympathy goes out to the family…I am so surprised to read she lived to her ninites so you were very blessed to have shared her love for so many years!
With Sympathey,
Carol Kirchner-Vere
