Yesterday

My deepest sympathies to the Kesthely families. We were neighbors in the Hitchman Haven subdivision of Rochester Hills. Our children were classmates of Karmel and Scott in Junior High and High Schools. We always recall and appreciated the kindness that Virginia showed in arranging for our daughter to catch the school bus at their home when she had a leg in a cast and our home was 50 feet shy of the 1 1/2 miles from the school.
Sincerely, Richard Aust, Bradenton, Floirida
