February 21, 2008

Our family is sorry to see the passing of your Dad and Granddad Gale Keane. Gale and Marge were good friends for many many years with our parents, Amos and Eleanor Taylor.
Their friendship included fun evenings of playing cards after a yummy dinner. For many summers, May and Van Overman (our aunt and uncle) invited all for fun in the Ozarks at their cabin and on the lake on their boat. And don't forget the deck of cards.
The friendship of both our sets of parents went back to their early years, after school, joining the work force, marriage and the birth of Dennis, Lynn and Scott. How blessed our parents were to have had such a friendship that endured the test of time.
Our prayers are with you all.
