I worked with Yvonne for many years starting in 1978, when I transferred from the Lakewood NY store. She was a hard working associate who liked to have fun. I left Erie for Camillus NY in 1980. I returned to Erie in 1985 as the Personnel Manager. She reported directly to me as one of three floor supervisors. We had a very close relationship until I left Erie in1992

I am Bill Anderson, Ken´s younger brother. I too have strong memories of cousin Delores and her mother, my Aunt Margret´s home in Bradford. In the 1950´s Aunt Margaret made a corduroy jumper for cousin Delores, she also made a Teddy Bear from the leftover fabric for me. I still have that Teddy Bear.

My deepest condolences to all of you. Delores is my last cousin and her mother was my God Mother. Aunt Margaret is an angel and I have wonderful memories of her. And the three flights of steps to her home. I was young and winded going up those steps. Now I am thinking every bag of groceries carried up and every bag of trash carried back down. A few years ago I drove past 100 Maplewood Avenue in Bradford and the house is gone.
