Thank you for loving my family like your own. Without you and Evelyn we would never have come to Ohio! My last memory is sitting in the Alger carryout waiting to limp my car home after it overheated and talking with you about it. Thanks for all the help you did monthly at commodities making sure food was distributed to those in need. Till we meet again!
