Remembering the good times we had gathering at Klier's drug store for ice cream and soda's,just to visit and pass the time.We used to go to the dfferent houses and play blackjack for pennies or the piano or records. Rita had a great voice,she sure could sing.Many nights we went to the Fireman's Exempt Club to meet Aunt Gladys and Uncle Norman and dance the night away,
play the juke box and have a ball back in the early forties.
I still use a cook book Rita gave to me when I got my diamond.Hold it together with rubber bands.Thanks Rita for your friendship.
Monie.
Rita,I often think of your Father{Uncle Art}gathering up you and Ethel and all his neighborhood nephews for a day of fishing and roasting hot dogs at Churchville park.Those were the days.
Good bye Re,Fran
