She was my mom's best friend and they were both strong independent women and could hold their own with any of my dads friends!!
Best memory is going up to St. Clair with my parents for a golf tournament and Mrs. Giffer (this will make sense in a second) had a shop in the outdoor mall and they were having a festival and you got fake money and you could buy stuff, Mrs Giffer (again) gave Tighe and I a bunch of fake money to have fun. So talented, her shop was incredible.
When I got older she told me I can call her Joann, I said okay Mrs. Giffer. LOVE , LOVE ,LOVE YOU JOANN!! Say hi to my Mom & Dad.
She also gave our family a Yellow Galaxy 500, this was my first car to share with Shawn & Tighe.
Jill, you gave me tickets to the Dodger game in the Dugout Club. A catered food event by Wolfgang Puck. Once in your seat you could order anything FREE....Get out!
Mike, when you were a policeman in Grosse Point. I burned rubber out of a gas station and fishtailed (not the Galaxy), you pull me over came up to the car ask me to get out and said Brian what are you doing and let me go with a warning. The girl in the car was soooo impressed! I didn't tell her you were a family friend.
