To Terry and family sorry about the passing of your mom. When I was young my mom was at first a customer of your mom then it turned into a friendship at the little brick hair salon on north hill. She was a pleasant person who had a smile you could remember Greg Nicholls.
Your mom treated me like a daughter. She was feisty and I love that about her. I will never forget Gwen.
Condolences to your family
