Thank you everyone. Cathy, I am so sorry I missed mentioning your dad as a surviving brother. I realized what I did the day it was printed. It was an unintentional oversight. I hope Aunt Joan and Uncle Bucky are doing well. Love, Janet

My dad and Paul's last surviving sibling, Andy (known by the family as Bucky) and my mother Joan,send their deepest condolences on the loss of your dad and his baby brother. I'm sure my folks wanted to be there with you but are unable to travel. They will miss his phone calls.
