Ida and and I had been friends since the 1950's when I taught at Brownell School and she was the secretary. She was a very dear friend and I will miss her. I have many happy memories of the time we spent together at our home in Lima and then at Lakeside. I am so sorry I hadn't seen her for a long time and health reasons prevent me from coming to the service. My sympathy to the family. Kamille Allen
