Marian, we had such a nice evening at the Olney Grille on July 10th. I can hardly believe that you left this adventure while I was away for just 10 days. I know that your place in Our Lord's mansion is the very best for you.

I will miss our conversations. So many unasked questions about our family. You had a good run with some detours --and you survived and left many behind to remember you. Love, Joan
