John and Dorothy went with Bill and Juana to Ohio in the early 90's. We also were fellow visitors to Bethany Beach, members of Hughes United Methodist Church and eventually, all residents of Riderwood Village. My deepest sympathy to the family and fondest memories of our friendship over the years. Juana Schettler (Bill)
