Dear Aunt Jean and Scott,
I was so very sorry to just learn today of Lori's passing! My heart goes out to all of you. We have all tried to get in touch with you over the last recent years. After Dad's passing in Oct. 2006, We had some young pictures of Uncle Cecil that we wanted to pass on to you. I know Aunt Frannie has tried to get in touch with you also. We miss all of you and would like to see you or talk to you. I'm still in Johnston and finally, after 16 years, got remarried 09-03-11. Please let us know what address(es) to find you at. Thank you and you'll be in our thoughts & prayers.
U Ron & A Sarah are now coincidentally both in the same care facility in Cedar Rapids w/some dementia.
Hugs!
