Maryann, Since retiring from WFLA last year and moving to Arkansas, I try to keep up on things in Lincoln and with the lodge on-line with the JournalStar. I was so saddened to see Bob's name in the Obituaries. I have many wonderful memories of sitting in your kitchen, having coffee and sampling your latest baked "goody" and telling stories. Please know I'm there in spirit if not in person. Bill
