Dear Lois & Sue & Family,

From the entire Chelton Family

Les has kept the appointment we all must keep.
As you go through this time of sadness, may you know in your heart how very much others care.

Dear Lois, Sue and Family--- I have had you, Lois, and Les on my mind for the past week. Then I get the newspaper and see Les' name. Needless to say, I shed quite a few tears. I remember visiting your home many times and loved to hear you and Les converse with Mom and Dad. I am so sorry for your loss. Kathy Smathers Hanna, Venus, PA
