Not sure what to say?





July 22, 2015

A cousin sent me the notice in the Wichita Eagle of your Mom's death. I often had wondered about Lenore....I lost contact after my parents died (Lois and Lawrence). Often, when I would be in Wichita I would wonder where Kim's office was, thinking I might find her and catch up with all of you. (Since our parents have died, we no longer take that trip to Wichita.) Lanore and Bill were such good friends with my parents. They even visited them after my parents moved to Texas. I have wonderful memories of our two families. Our mothers loved to visit--and most of the talk was bragging about their kids. I remember the great camping trips (Lake Fagen?). And I remember going to Colorado with you and sleeping in a tent in Rocky Mountain Park. Looks like two of you have made Colorado your home. I am sorry for the loss of your mother.

Lenore was a wonderful neighbor to Lavonne Dillon at Highland House. My Mom, my sister, Mary and I enjoyed visiting with Lenore - she was sweet, and always positive. Sharon Dillon

Joyce, I am so sorry on the loss of your mother. I remember her well as such a lovely lady. I know she used to square dance with my folks. I know you have many wonderful memories of her to comfort you.

We'll sure miss Aunt Lenore. But we know she is again sharing a laugh and a square dance and the birds with Uncle Bill.

Joyce, Judy, you are the 2 I spent the most time with during my time in Andover but my prayers go to all of you. When you would have a sleep over at your house, one thing I will never forget about your mother was her carrot & raisin salad, I know this is a strange thing to leave for you but it was great and she was a great lady. You have many wonderful memories and are very fortunate for that. Again God bless you all. Querida (Rita Ward)Maple

Judy, Kim, Bradley, Joyce and families,
My thoughts and prayers are with you in the passing of your mom. I visited her a few years back and was amazed at her "youth" yet. Our fathers worked together at Boeing and families visited together at your Andover home.
Savor the sweet memories.
