My belated condolences to Rosemary and family. It wasn't until the Christmas card I sent this year (2024) was returned undeliverable that I discovered the home had been sold and learned of Ron's passing. May his memory be a blessing to his family and friends. Rosemary, if you read this at this late date, please call me. Sheila Kraemer
