Sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing. Lois and I have often wondered about you and your family. Lois thought she read where Onalee was a policewoman. Is that at all accurate. I am married, have three children and living in Kirkland, Wa. Lois knows Pastor Voss and lives and taught in Owosso, MI. Our Mom Esther died at 91 just before your Mom August 5th.

I have fond memories of visiting your home. Sharon, you led my sister and by way of Lois me to playing piano.
Again, My condolences.
