I just want to say, I am so sorry we couldn't be there. It's times like these when distance really matters and hits hard. Our sympathies to Johnny, Kathy, Tina, Wally and their families. I think of you guys often.

I want to say I am sorry for your loss. I used to live upstairs from Flo, Wally and family on Austin St. I always remembered her as the nice lady that called out my name "Cindy L-O-U" at which I would quickly reply my middle name is Lee! I am 43 now, and when people tease me and call me Cindy Lou, I always tell them the story and about Mrs. Jakobowski in So. Norwood. God's Peace to you and and I hope your memories of Christmas' past will help you through this holiday season
