I'm sorry for your loss. I only knew her through the internet in talking about my classmate Andrea. We wanted her to know that the class of 1963 remembered Andrea and missed her. She wrote the nicest emails and we discovered her and my Mom were also classmates. Last we wrote she still seemed upbeat but ready. Please accept my sincere sympathy.

I have many fond memories of camping with Bob and Lynne Horning as a youth, along with my parents Frank and Millie Pierce. Lynne was a special person, always a joy to be around.
