-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------My condolences to entire McCormick family. I talked to my Dad last night & sadly learned of your Mom’s passing. I had the pleasure of chatting with your Mom a few years ago at a Hampton Founders Day picnic & it was good to reminisce. She was there with Nan Callan & we all had a few good laughs. Also, in talking with my Dad I didn’t realize that the two of them were in the same class in High School & Dad even remembered Frances sitting behind him in class! Sadly, with every passing month & year, the “old timers” of Hampton are leaving us as their numbers continue to decline. Time marches on. Paul R.
