I just found out about cousin Shirley's passing last evening, 12/18/2013 A.D., as I was checking the internet for a current corrected address for her. The Christmas card which I mailed to her this year, came back, by return mail. That's only reasonable, because I'm sure that their delivery service doesn't go as far as Heaven. On quite a few memorable and fun occasions, she "took care" of my brother Bob and I, when we were youngsters, while our Mom worked, probably at the Lewistown Viscose. Please, accept our belated expression of sympathy. In-Christ, Bob and Jim Sellers and families.
