I knew Ira and Doris well through the years, not being near them all of those years, but I'd see them yearly at conventions or other places ... and they were always the same. Ira's big warm smiles, and quiet, gentle smiles from Doris. There is no question in my mind as to where she is now, finished with human nature, sorrows and pain. I'm thankful for her steady example.
