Mary, I don't know if you remember me or not? Chris was on our little league team in the seventies. I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your sister. My prayers are with you.

Fran,
How saddened I am to read of Lynne's passing. I will always remember a very humorous young woman, when I would see Lynne at Safeway with you. You both brought so much joy to those around you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Sincerely,
Laurie (Johnson) Ensign
