I’m so heartbroken, but some of my favorite life moments was visiting Dennis and Christine at Azure Gate. What initially started as a college visit when I was in high school soon turned into an almost yearly trip, even after I picked a different school. Talking with Dennis and Christine was always a highlight on our visits. When I got married, they sent us a Gift certificate for a couple days stay so they could meet my husband. Christine put a picture on the front of this ethereal lady with long red hair. Christine said it reminded her of me. Before they closed Azure Gate, they granted my plea for the little ceramic rabbit that was outside of the house we stayed in. He has been living at my home in Illinois and I’ve been taking pictures of him enjoying the seasons including snow. I tried sending pictures to the old Azure gate email recently (before I found out about this), but I don’t believe they went through. I will miss her so much. Please tell Dennis Natalie says hello.
Hi Natalie, it's Ashley, Dennis and Christine's youngest daughter. Thanks for posting this. Mom often would talk of your visits so even though we never meet, I feel like I know you as part of the family updates, and news to share. I'm sure my dad would love to hear from you. Do you have his personal email? Let me know. Also, would love to see the rabbit season photos updates. You can always email me at ash.casatelli@gmail.com. Be well and hope you are enjoying summer. We miss mom (and the Azure Gate) so so so much. Much love, Ashley
