Dear Michael, Virginia, Betsy and families,
I have such fond memories of when Uncle Marion, Aunt Connie, you, and your brothers would come to Akron to visit. When I think of Uncle Marion and Aunt Connie, I think of warm smiles, hugs, and laughing. (I can't believe how much Uncle Marion looks like Granddad!)
I live in Nashville now, and will not be able to make it on Saturday. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.
Love,
Tina (Rich) Rothrauff (Aunt Jo's youngest)
