Karen, Bill, and Tony,
My father, Jim Brogan and I just found out Elsie passed away 8/12/15, or we would have been at the memorial. Elsie and Jack were the best neighbors. Elsie was a sweet lady that will be missed. Please let Bill know we found out after her memorial, because we lost touch with Bill. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
