Dave and family, I’m very sorry to hear of the passing of your wife Marilyn. I don’t know if you remember me or not but we lived across the street from Walt and Josie Nidy.. it has been many years from the Fulton days. I didn’t know you were even in this area. My husband and I also live in Plainwell.. I just want to extend my deepest and most sincere sympathy to you and your family.May Marilyn Rest in Peace
