Judy, so sorry to hear about Marty's passing. I tried to call you Sunday night when we got word but you weren't home. I know you are devastated. I won't say I know what you are going thru because I am fortunate not to have faced that yet but, at our age, it is going to happen. Roger and I have thought of you guys over the years. The only way we found out about it is because Lora Bass Lezark (1960 class) e-mailed me. She wanted me to check it out before we posted it in on the CGHS website. Take comfort in knowing that you two had a good life and that he loved you. Thinking of you, Roger & Susie Lanham Barnett
