To all of our California cousins,
We are sorry that we won't have the chance to visit with Aunt Gay again. I have many happy memories of the whole family coming Home to see us and our trip to CA in '59...long ago. More recently we enjoyed a visit to CA and certainly appreciated your MOm coming to see us. We always had such fun. We spoke of your Mom at Thanksgiving, of course, and the consensus is that she was the most prgressive of the Balliard "girls".
Hope your memories give you comfort at this difficult time.
Michele Ann, Bruce and family
