Uncle "Sip" worked for my Dad, Leonard, in the late 40's and early 50's prior to him going into service. He lived in our house during those years. He was home on leave from the army when he was notified to report back for duty. I remember his coming to our country school to say "Goodbye". Aunt Christina was with him.

Marilyn and I had a good visit with Uncle Sip and Aunt Christina last November. We have fond memories of that visit.

Our Sympathy to your family. We will be in Iowa for a few days in mid April. We will stop by to see AusteZnt Christina. Lee & Marilyn Vander Esch
