Starr and the Openshaw family,

So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I have fond memories of the many days spent in the Openshaw home on the corner of Jones and Dora sts in our younger years.

Starr and Spence,
So sorry to hear about your father and grandfather. Thoughts and best wishes are sent to you both and to your mom and grandmother.
