Recollections & Sympathy For the Family
Post Comment
To the Beland Family. When I think back, I have very fond memories of the times your family spent at the Kirchner Farm.
Spending a night at the "hunting cabin" on the top of the mountain. Many happy memories spent at the farm and at your home on Livingston Ave. Your Mom was a Gem. God Bless all of you.
