Marie and Linda,
I believe it was Franklin Street in Lawrenceville that you lived on way back when Linda ran a summer school for us little kids in the upstairs of the garage. It was always fun to come to your house. Snacks and drinks, and learning made fun. I think I remember a yellow sunfire. Art was always patient with the group of tots hanging around. It has been so many years since that time. Memories remain, and I know memories and God will aide you on a road to recovery from the sorrows. My sympathies to all.
