One Condolence for “PAVAN Elizabeth”

  1. Carol Naylor says:

    Fond memories of a visit to Mrs Pavan’s Farm with her daughter Ann. I remember her as a fiesty lady that would take on any task. Not afraid of saying what was on her mind in a very diplomatic way. Sorry for your loss Ann, Paula and Chris.
