I remember as a teenager talking to Mrs. K. in her living room with Jack by her side and the two dogs. There were two oriental paintings in the room that I openly admired. So that of course led to more worldly discussions which I thought was fantastic since my vision was to study international business in school. I did graduate from EC with an IBM degree and I also have several oriental pictures hanging in my dining room along with an antique oriental, china cabinet. So thank you Mrs. K. Your influence has lasted a lifetime.
Sue Ellen and family please continue to celebrate her wonderful life. My sincere sympathy for your loss.

Dinny was a woman loved by all. She inspired and comforted everyone who knew her. She is missed. Jayne Simonini
