We were saddened to hear of Candy's passing. We first met Candy years ago when she was visiting a neighbor or ours here in Chapin. Imagine our surprise when visiting Seabrook in 2017 and we invited an old friend and fellow musician, Chuck Bowers, out to dinner and he brought Candy as his date. Candy was always gracious and fun to be around. She will be missed by all. We will always have good memories of our brief times together.
