My Mom and Dad were great friends of Jean and "Duckie". Dad worked at Eljer and I think that is where their friendship started. They always enjoyed getting together for candy, cookies, coffee and much laugher. My prayers are with you and your family. May God Bless. Charles and Esther Duriga family.

I'm so pleased that we were able to be together a little over a year ago. My prayers are with you, Tina, as you wind up your mother's estate.
Love,
