My Mother, Helen Croft, a teacher in Comber in the 30's, boarded with the Bowers. For all the years later, my Mom would always visit Kathryn whenever she visited Comber. It was a top priority. We, her children, picked up on the tradition and would visit too, after our Mom passed away. In our visits, it was easy to see how our Mother loved Kathryn so much. A visit was always filled with warmth, laughter and stories. Our paths in life cross the paths of many people but some of those paths are rerouted to cross over and over again. The biggest compliment is that many of those path are continually purposefully rerouted. I am sure that our paths with Carol, Margaret and Mary Anne will continue that tradition. All of this is a result of a very close and warm relationship that started some 80 years ago.
