December 15, 2011
I was a Camel's Hump neighbor who remembers Jean/"Johnnie"/Amanda and the pick-up softball games we had in the meadow below Gramps' house. I attended the Johnston/Zapf wedding. My memories are numerous of the Kingsley boys who joined our games between school and summer camp,then briefly before they returned to school again. I am 84 and live in Ft. Myers, Fl. My condolences to the family. Betty Uhler Buralli [email protected]
