To Elton Leppelmeier and family,
We send our deepest sympathy to Elton and the daughters and grandchildren and great grandchildren on the passing of Joan. We were there at the marriage of Joan and Elton 57 years ago as part of the Nela Park young adults and newly married community. So many memories return of those starting days for all the families. Our thoughts are with you.
