I am in shock, just read of the deaths of Sandra and John in the Dayton [Ohio] paper. Sandra and I have been childhood friends for probably 70 years growing up in Middletown. Our mothers were friends. My birthday is December 11, 1940 I always called her on her birthday and during the year we kept in touch. I am saddened not knowing of her death and funeral not being able to say goodby. My deepest sympathy to her family and grief losing both your parents but they are together as they have for 61 years with our Heavenly Father. My love to all of you.
