To Penny & each member of the Krone clan,

I'm keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

God's gift to us is that the love he has for us and the love we share with each other never dies. Orville will live on in each of you and in the love you have for each other, and the memories you have of him.

Sending eHugs your way!

I'd like to think that even now he and Uncle Roger, Mark & Brian are playing some cards!

I worked with Orville (Bones) on the BN after the 1970 merger. He helped me understand the former GN side.
