It is with great sadness and disappointment that I will not be with you kids tomorrow for your Moms memorial. I had intended to make the trip up from Florida but now will not be able to. Hope to see you later in the year when I am back in Ohio.

Jeanne was a terrific sister. One in a million.

My best to all of you,
Uncle Bob

My Mother, Helyn Frye helped to establish Camp Za-Ni-Ka in 1950. She served as camp director for 10 years. Jim and Jeanne were key members of the dedicated group that helped this camp flourish. This experience was often a life changing experience for these children. My deepest sympathy to her family.

Jeanne was a great sister in law. When I think about the Galliers family it saddens me that I am the last one of that generation to be alive. I was the baby, born late in Grace and Philip Galliers' life. My sympathy to Lynette, Jim, JoEllen and Karen

Jeanne was our next door neighbor when we moved to Toledo in 1995. Shortly after moving in she invited me (Cindy) to be her guest at a Toledo Museum of Art event. I was so touched that she offered to take me, knowing she had a long list of friends she could have asked to go. Jeanne was also a great help when I had questions about roses, and I had a lot to learn about them. We will always treasure our memories of Jeanne and her beloved dog, Schautzy. Our thoughts are with you all.
