I will miss all our phone conversation to check up on what was new or her asking about what she was doing wrong with her knitting that the afghans ended up double the size. We wend to school together at Harriman and have been friends since will miss her. My deepest sympathy to all the family.

Uncle Hugh and Aunt Julianne stopped to see me at college in 1974. I got to hold my cousin Andrew!
