I remember Thelma well. She used to live at the Eastern Avenue Senior Housing in Wilton. She was one of my berry customers and bought many quarts to do jams and jellies every summer. I also gave her cukes and tomatoes from my garden, which she would do pickles and relishes from. My prayers and thoughts are with the family. May God bless you as you think over the very fond memories of her.
