Dear Barry and Jay,
I'm sorry to hear about your loss of your Mom. You may have heard that my Dad passed a few months ago here in CA. Your folks still lived on Kinney Dr all these years!!! We lived next door until my Mom moved to CA about 20 yrs ago.

Mrs. Aframe was my substitute teacher when I was in grammar school. She always made me her "favorite" for the time she was there because my aunt was Estelle (Tauny). What a wonderful person she was and so good to me. My deepest condolences to her family.
