We were so sorry to hear of Uncle Bob's passing. We have some great memories of him, Debbie especially. Because we have not been in touch for years, we also did not know that Roger and Rebecca had passed away. Debbie's sister Marilyn told us the news and also that Harry and John are living in Washington not too far from us. We have often thought of the Sphar family, and feel bad that we have been out of touch for so long. Please look us up if you would like -- We are in the phone book, living here in Lacey, Washington. Or Marilyn has our home phone number. She did not have any of your numbers to give to us. God Bless you all, Debbie and Doug.
