Jolene and Donna Rae, I was so sorry to read of Doris's death.
Had I known she was in the nursing home, I would have gone to
visit her! She was a very sweet and dear lady, and I know you
will miss her very much!
I still have memories of a day when she and Bert brought the two
of you with them when they came to visit Mother and Daddy! Joyce
and I were learning to ride our tricylces and the two of you helped
push us around the yard! That was so many years ago!
Mary Schofield Castle (Marguerite's oldest daughter)
