Vinnie – We are Wally and Karen Bragg, currently of VT and formerly of Kingston, NH. When I met my husband, he introduced me to Maerita who had Prestige Travel at the time (1986). She just loved my husband Wally and asked about him every time I went to see her or called on the phone. She came to our wedding in the barn at our house in Kingston in 1992. When we sold our business, Memories Ice Cream, in 2003 and moved to VT we never physically saw her again but talked on the phone. I had been calling her to no avail and thought to do a google search to see if she had passed and that’s when I saw her obituary. She promised me if anything happened to her you had my contact information. I am so saddened to hear of her passing and would love to chat with you about her if you are so inclined to chat with me. I did just see that her condo is going to foreclosure. We loved your mother like our own but didnt get doen to her area any longer once we moved. We can be reached at 802 584 3351 if you ever want to call. Thank you!!!
Dearest Ginger. I am truly sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved and cared for your mom, visiting her frequently and keeping tabs on her care. I am sure God has taken your mom home, into His loving arms. Be at peace, knowing that you will see her again when we all are together on the other side. <3
