Dear Frances and family,
Please receive my sincere condolences. My mother is Doris Kurfman Olson, a first cousin of Jerry's. Mom is 87 so was an adult when Jerry came along. Her younger brothers, Wendell and Warren , were like my sister Carol and my big brothers. Jerry and the twins were close cousins and friends. I remember all three guys as so much fun and so handsome!
I've enjoyed getting to know Stephanie at the Ellsberry reunion. I'll look forward to seeing all of you...
