Mary Ann,
This is a friend out of the past. I was in your Camp Fire group with Mrs. Ehman and Alice. I fondly remember the times we had together at our weekly meetings and on campouts to Camp Wyandot. I have often wanted to have a Camp Fire reunion.
I was browsing the obituaries and noticed your father's name. My father, too, has passed. And my mother. It is never easy to lose a parent as you well know.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
Let's try to get the Westgate gals together in 2011. Betsy Lehman Smith
