Hedy,
Sorry we can not be with you but you are in our thoughts. We too remember all the corny jokes - most learned from Dad!!!! Yes I am sure they are having a great game of poker right now and of course Mom is complaining about them smoking cigars!
Love Ginnie, Sandra, and Jim

Uncle Len, you will be missed more than words can describe. A kind and gentle man, with always a smile and a corny joke to light up my day. I will always love you,
Didi
