Lynn and Mary, Bob and Connie, Jim and Gary, you have my deepest sympathy in losing your Dad. I just lost my Mom on the 11th of this month, also to a fast cancer that we were not aware of until just three weeks before her passing. It still does not seem real. Over the years your family has grown much larger, however, as the minister at Mom's service stated, it would not have happened without her. We owe everything to our parents. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Love to you all. Sharon Kohls

Gail, after talking with you by phone, I found this address from an e-mail Margaret had forwarded from Lynn. It gives me an opportunity to again express to you and your entire family my deepest sympathy for your loss of Norvell. You all are in my thought and prayers and again, Gail you are very fortunate to have such a loving family to help you through this experience. I don't think I could have made it through Dorothy's illness and passing without the help of Greg and Barbara.
Love, Howard Tolen

Gail;
We were very sorry to learn of your loss. I check the Topeka paper every morning on the internet and saw the obituary there. We are in Harlingen, Texas for the winter and will not be there for the funeral but our thoughts will be with you and the kids.
Your cousin, Derald
