Dear Sissy and Lew, we are saddened to hear about Mrs. Orange. She was such a sweet, sweet person. We enjoyed all those times with you all during ballgames, picnics at the lake and you all made us feel like family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of great loss. You were blessed for a long time. We know you have millions of happy memories of her.

I remember Mrs. Orange when I was growing up and visiting with my Grandparents, Herbert and Kathleen Leake. She was a very sweet lady. I remember being childhood friends with Henry, Rosella and
also Lewis Rainey. My deepest sympathy to the family.
