Dear Fran, I am so sorry about Fred's passing, but glad God gave you so many wonderful years together. It's also been years since we were Board members of CNADM and much has happened in the years inbetween. I still recall the wonderful and fun times I shared with you and Paula. Please accept my prayers for you and your family - and Paula - as well as my love. Lovey (La Verne) Lehman
