- As shared by Rena (HOPKINS) ARBOUR in Sep 2006, "Mandy used to keep a big drawer full of toys -- some of them even really good toys, expensivetoys -- left by some of the visitors during the summer. We would go over there and she would let the kidsplay with them. Lawrence would go through the drawer and take out all the toys and then would find something very simple to play with."
