I lived on Park Street in OH & our( HORN) back yard almost adjoined the SEAMAN back yard. My Mom , Ruth Horn & Nelta were very close friends. Bonnie & I were 5 years apart in age, but she was always nice to me. In the summer we walked to the creek that ran along the east side of the cemetary to look around. I'm sure we spent a lot of summer hours just reading books & talking as girls do. Bob Liske, her next door neighbor mentioned to us that she hadn't been well. Our thoughts & prayers are with you.
