Dear Gene and Ian, I heard of Daune's death only a few days ago and was so saddened. As everyone else on here has said she was as sweet as she was beautiful. I enjoyed getting to know her when Jeff and Ian were playing baseball. I will never forget her kindness and the help she gave me once when I needed her. May God give strength to those she has left behind. Larry, Barbara, and Jeff Jeffers

Gene - I was so sad & sorry to hear that Duane had passed away. She was a beautiful lady. I remember a trip to Panama City & she & I laughed the entire time...(you driving a school bus back to Columbus). I know you will miss her and my prayers are with you and your son.
