    What a loss we now have on our hands. Known her for approximately 74 yrs as best I can remember.
    She was the spark in our Robinson, Lutz and Westmorland street reunion that only stopped because of the Pandemic.
    This reunion came every couple of years and some of us came from miles away to celebrate each other with fun and memories.
    What a group, and leading the way was Fern.
    Fern, you be will be missed you forever.

  16. Our prayers and thoughts will be with you this weekend as you celebrate Fern’s life. Family was her love and that love will see you through these precious times God.bless
    Val and John O’Regan
